Here is the data as of this afternoon. 4 modules now have over 5000MAh of capacity, or 77% of original capacity, which is quite good for 14 year...
Here are some times: Charging each module at 0.5A to the 7200MAh cutoff with the hobby charger generally takes 15 hours. Two modules are being...

It is my understanding that NiMH cells/modules are designed to be charged with constant current and NOT constant voltage. That is why using a car...
https://toyota.epc-data.com/prius/nhw20/138293/ Good source for both part diagrams and part numbers. Dicking around in it, is how I found out...
Yes, the Prius is very complicated. There is somewhere around 13 different computer modules on the car, including individual ones for the abs...
Local hobby store is going out of business. Going to try to snag a cheap dual channel charger to try and speed things up. Hope to be done by end...
Would be cool to drive a 1st gen Insight. Always wondered how it would be to drive a hybrid with a manual transmission. They also use only a 3cyl...
Luckily module 28 is fine. Let it level off for a few hours and tested it on my discharger at 1C to 6V. 5020 MAh capacity. Have read in the past...
You typically won't see a memory effect, properly known as "lazy battery effect" in NiMH cells, when used in other devices that fully deplete and...
My view has always been, if it ain't broke, don't fix it lol. The noise has never got worse, and only upon startup.
Can't imagine any book that costs $3,000 unless it's an antique. Heck, even all of my college textbooks didn't total close to $3,000.
So today I woke up to see that module 28 had swollen slightly over the night. But..this was one of the first modules I tried charging and swelled...
Never said what you do doesn't work, but drilling into modules isn't safe. What if the bit goes down too far and causes an internal short? The...
I found this while searching about NiMH crystallization....
I am trying to understand the interaction that occurs to further my understanding of rebuilding these modules. If you set a hobby charger or...
I also want to make something clear. My hobby charger, as well as many others, do not perform a constant current charge cycle on modules. It...
Here is the data. Now I want to mention a couple things. You will see some negative percentages. There's a couple explanations for this, for...
They do, and a pressurized container of KOH heated to about 300F will dissolve an entire human body in as little as 3 hours. Definitely a...
Most normal people have a healthy fear of caustic chemicals. Here's what KOH does to chicken, now imagine that's your hand.. I didn't realize...
