I read a report (put out by NASA) a few years ago in an amateur radio magazine that battery memory is for the most part a myth. It only happens in situations where the battery is charged and discharged the same rate every time. It said this happens in only 2 situations, with satellites in space (because they are on a never changing orbit) and with backup devices that charge batteries at a given time every day. Like emergency lighting and battery backup units. For the normal situation a person puts a battery through they get more then enough discharge and recharge variance to not have any kind of issue with memory.



I know this is the internet and someone will say this is not so, you can say the sky is blue, and someone reading it on the net will tell you it’s another color.

But I have never seen memory problems and have used a lot of batteries.
