I used to get good service from Ni-Cad cells. I never put them on a
rapid charge, never let them run way down. The whole process of treating
them like raw egs was painful. I got over ten years of daily use from
about a dozen of those. Then along came the NiMH and jumped right on the
bandwagon. I haven't looked back. I was surprised to se new Ni-cad cells
on sale a couple of weeks ago. I can't imagine who would want them. You
done good.

If I can figure out how to do it maybe I should make a YouTube video or
two. If a picture is worth a thousand words..what about a video?
