10.2 Using Rechargeable Batteries
The rechargeable battery cartridge P4428R contains 10 NiCd ‘AA’
cells of 600mAh capacity. The cartridge should be recharged using the
cartridge container type P4428CA and charger unit type P4428UA.
The charger is a 50mA constant current charge requiring 14 to 16
hours for a full charge of an empty set of cells. The open circuit
voltage of the cartridge is approximately 12V regardless of charge
state. It is fused at 1A.
The use of rechargeable cells will give inaccurate battery life indication,
as half scale to the camera end point will be only a few minutes. As
such it is not recommended for operational use
