Three times I've found an exploded (leaking, expanded) rechargeable in my charger during a normal cycle. Ruined battery, ruined charger.
No battery expert here, but my experimentation is over. If I'm gonna recycle batteries (which I do), I choose ones I won't ruin and that are much more dependable out of the bulk pack. Duracells. Also have been quite pleased with my rechargeable sten batteries too...
