Default RE: CH ignition versus Chinese version.

i got some nicd battery's today.
grandad gave em to me today (christmas day after dinner) and said they were stuffed.
i looked them over and they are new casings but i wondered what the cells are like, i tested voltage from full and it read 11.2v (on my xmas multimeter hehe)
then i tested each individual cell and they are all over the place, some at the correct 1.26v (3 of them) and the others wary from 1.08 to 1.12v
if i charged the pack and get a proper 4 cells reading 1.26v then could i use them as a ignition pack?
they are 1300mah and my testing shows that they are in good condition.
all i need now is a peak charger for 4.8v and i'm set.

whay do you guys reckon?
