> >> I have the HX260S and wonder if I'm hurting my battery life. [SNIP] I have the slightly older version of the Icom-M1. I've had it for about five years and also use it to check weather intermittently on trips. My battery recently failed (they are around $79US to replace) after a total usage time of probably two hours over the years. I'd also love to hear any suggestions for treating the battery right. Is there an NiMH option available for the M1? I looked around on Icom's website and couldn't find any other battery options (AA etc) aside from the NiCad. -Patrick *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
