Re:Battery testing questions... - 2007/09/07 04:29
Correction, The Maha MH-C9000 is a pulsed current discharge based technology. Although the BC-900 was plotted during discharge, I can't confirm if it is also a pulsed current discharge based technology ( but it does show very small pulses ).
BTW: We have been in touch with West Mountain Radio. We hope to be reviewing the CBAII some time soon.
In reality, the word "nominal" really has no place in a technical document.
In general, there was no argument being made and the language of the datasheets was being illustrated. The main point is, that it should be really simple to make a clear and precise document.
What you or I get from those documents does not mean someone else will walk away with a different impression.
The Assumptions are really a simple statement that should make the average consumer understand what RBR expects from rechargeable batteries.
When you look at it, it is more a statement of fact, and it can be applied to any type of product.
We could talk about manufacturing processes and a great deal more but that does not explain some interesting trends we see.
You will see these trends in many other types of product categories as well.
I would like to see more posts as to some other peoples experiences.
More posts from people with devices such as the LaCrosse BC-900, Maha MH-C9000 and the CBAII would be helpful for all.
I invite you to post some of the data from your rechargeable batteries.
gb.
P.S. As some of you may have seen from the LED Flashlight Test description, we have started tested the AAA and AA rechargeable batteries using LED Flashlights with a discharge rate of 0.3C or higher.

batteries.html
These Flashlights use current regulation to attempt to keep light output constant.
