Friends,
I have a VHF handheld Uniden receiver which is designed to operate from 04 AA size alkaline or NiCd batteries.
Due to difficulites in getting NiCd's in my area,I thought of switching to NiMH types.Now I am wondering whether:-
1.Is its OK to use NiMH on the radio since it is designed for NICd?
2.Is the EMF of a NiMH is as same as NiCd?If not will there be any problems in the receiver?
3.Can I use my NiCd charger to charge NiMH's the charging rate of which is 160mA for 14 hours?
Appreciate your expert views
Thanks
