Re: NiCad Battery - Internal Component ID
Yes, the cells are
GP SYLVA-CHARGE - 95AAS
1.2v 950mAh
As for their age - well they were all second-hand when I got them, history unknown. I guess they were made around 1998-2000.
That density, 950mAh is low, suggesting they are very old. It was hard to get anything at that rating for replacements - I got 1000mAh, closest I could find easily.
I guess it is an acceptable age for the cells to 'let go'. Oddly, it seems that this pack I have dissected has good NiCads in it! I blame dirty connections.
(Some would suggest operator error!)
