Subject: Nicad replacements (waS Radio Rucksac)
hAS anybody used the Lidl ones?
My experience is that they dont seem to hold a good charge for long
The AAA and AA ones seem particularly bad - or have I wrecked them by soldering wire to the terminals?

Well my 320 fits with the strap over the radio, i.e. up between radio & battery over radio body to top of the radio, I have seen this done many times.

Ah, that's explains it. Now I see and yes, it does indeed.

Have installed a 320 in the backpack, all was well till battery went low quick. It was one I'd re-celled with 4000mH C cells but found 2 were oddly down when on load.
?
Off load they read ok but as soon as I put a load on the pack two of the cells went into reverse!. I have replaced them but only with 1200mA ones as that's all I have handy at the moment.
?
Looking at these 9000mA Ni-Mh cells from China, they would make a nice pack up so might try them next.

cheers all.
