It's recommended not to go below somewhere around .8-.9 volts per cell, but with NiMh it's not the end of the world. Just try not to get in the habit of going below that on a regular basis if you can help it. As far as how far you 'hafta' drain it before charging...... with NiMh, again, not a big deal. NiMhs aren't overly prone to forming a memory, so charge whenever you feel you need to. |

 NiCD's wanted to be fully cycled, NiMH does not need the same thing.  | |
