Wife got a new Ipad tonight and tells me that most NiHM batteries no longer need to be charged for say 8-16 hours before you use the device. This goes for Cell Phones, Cameras,and anything else that uses Ni-Cad, NiHM.
I recieved a new Cell-Phone battery 6 months ago and inside the box it said to charge it for X amount of hours first.
Who is right and why?
