NIMH battery help
So I've been trying to get help For over a week on this. No one will answer me. My NIMH battery has a disconnected WirE. Can I solder this wire back to the battery?

It should be possible to repair it. Was the wire soldered or welded directly to the battery or was there a tab that the wire was soldered to? Most of the solder joints on batteries are no longer the 60/40 lead/tin mix (lead being prohibited in some areas) and the new type solder is much more difficult to redo and usually requires a higher temperature than the solder we are familiar with. Whether or not it is reparable depends on the type metal you are trying to attach the wire to.
