Do you know the battery has "Memory Effect"?

Ni-CD batteries, and to a lesser extent Ni-MH batteries, suffer fromwhat's called the "Memory Effect". What this means is that if a batteryis continually only partially discharged before re-charging, thebattery "forgets" that it has the capacity to further discharge all theway down.To illustrate: If you, on a regular basis, fully charge your batteryand then use only 50% of its capacity before the next recharge,eventually the battery will become unaware of its extra 50% capacitywhich has remained unused. Your battery will remain functional, butonly at 50% of its original capacity. The way to avoid the dreaded"Memory Effect" is to fully cycle (fully charge and then fullydischarge) your battery at least once every two to three weeks.Batteries can be discharged by unplugging the device's AC adaptor andletting the device run on the battery until it ceases to function. Thiswill insure your battery remains healthy.If you find this guide helpful, please vote it. Thanks.
