Re: batery holder application
Yes. This should be possible.Can I recharge the NiCads through the same wires that are heating the vest?
Most battery manufacturers recommend against this. Variations in the resistance between packs can result in an imbalance during charging and discharging - potentially damaging the cells.Can I twist the same color wires on a second or third battery holder for a longer discharge time?
