My wife was pretty much dead. After 18 hours in the freezer, she jumped out of there like a 16 year old cheerleader. Thanks.

I recharged my 9.6v NiMH and put it in the refrigerator. is that good to keep its charge?

[sirmasterpimp]

@TheItalianPerson I know keeping batteries cooler than room temperature is good for them......fridge probably won't hurt them.

[TheItalianPerson]

is it good to leave a NiMH and a NiCad battery uncharged?

[sirmasterpimp]

@TheItalianPerson No, not for long periods of time at least.

I have that same Coleman Max 2AA. Advertised as 110 lumens, more like 35, but a good light for $20. It also keeps my girlfriend from borrowing (aka LOSING ) my Quarks, Fenix, and Nitecores, so yes, I do like it. ; )

May this work on a car battery I got a large deep freezer and 8 year old car battery out of my 63 in the yard

[emilen2]

So,,, Do I want to attempt to charge the batteries (NiMH) first before the freezing?

@sirmasterpimp Here's some more helpful advice about NiMH battery chargers. It's a good idea to get the right NiMH charger. You never want a NiMH battery charger with a LED(Light Emitting Diode) that's always on when the charge time is complete. I'm just letting you know.

This worked great for me. I had 2 completely dead 3 year old RC Nimh batteries that would never charge for me. I threw them in the freezer overnight and they work almost like new. Thank you so much. Saved me $50.
