.... WHAT IS GOING ON??? ..... Ben I suspect that for one thing you are over reacting. Second you are forgetting that sh&* happens and there are things like bad runs that make it past quality control or old stock etc. It also happens that some batteries require a cycle or two before they come up to capacity. Take a deep breath. Consider the real meaning of life and consider moving on. Try NiMH's for the uses you are not using old technology for, charging them outside the device. They will work for many such devices. Also try running the old tech batteries through a few cycles to see if they improve. Life is short. Don't sweat the small stuff, this is really small stuff. -- Joseph Meehan 26 + 6 = 1 It's Irish Math

and I want to add also that if the player is turned off and left plugged in, that's when the charging circuit does it's job. Would that damage NiMH batteries is they were in the unit? When the batts go dead they'll use AC to listen to it; I'm sure they'd forget to unplug the unit half the time when they weren't using it. Probably not.
