Default RE: NIMH charging problem....I am cursed!!!!

Well, both of the batteries came up an additional 90 mah to just over 900 mah. This was the third cycle. I guess as long as I'm getting an improvement I will continue. I did hook the meter up in parallel with the charger on the Accucycle. By the time I noticed it had switched over, which couldn't have been more than 10 minutes or so, the battery was already up to 5 volts. That does make me wonder if it's going down all the way to 4.0 - 4.4 volts. As I said, the strange thing is that both chargers are giving results that are pretty close. Is there something in the NIMH makeup that would make it end its cycle prematurely as opposed to Nicads? I have never had this much of a problem with any of my Nicad......and I've had a bunch.
