I'm noticing that the radio shack brand 2500 mAh AA rechargeable batteries I got are not pulling in a proper charge from the radio charging system. Anyone else noticing this?? I'm using the yellow rechargeable battery pack, and I have a radio shack power supply (DC 9v 1500 mAh with positive tip).
After leaving the power supply plugged into the radio overnight, so at least 6 hours, I get maybe 1 hour to 1.5 hours of scanning out of the batteries. Is there something wrong with the batteries, the radio, or is this normal for Ni-MH batteries?
My old Pro-29 is running on rechargeable batteries from the 90's, and I get way more than 1 to 1.5 hours out of them after charging them in the radio.
I've ordered an actual battery charger, and will see if that helps these Ni-MH AA's hold a better charge.
