battery pack getting hot
I have three 5cell SANYO NI-MH battery packs 2100 mA.
Looking at my history of them I started using them on 4/15/04
Been using them right along but the last two times I cycled them the
battery packs got really hot, how hot you ask, hot enougy that you can't hold them tightly in you hand.
Is this an indication I should trash them and replace them?

RE: battery pack getting hot
I have a Peak Electronics cycler, it discharges to a preset value.
Then when I put the pack on their peak charger it gets pretty hot.
I have since got some new packs from NoBs Batteries.
The pack in question was pretty old.
I am watching you

Do you know how many amps you are pulling on the packs? You may be sucking more out than they are willing to provide..
