- Is this true? I just got some 8.4V NiCads from Varta (one exploded
- due to charging it at an accelerated rate... it was expected). But I
- always assumed NiCads in their fundamental value come in 1.2V packages.
- Hence, a 7 cell NiCad pack = 8.4V. -Marketed as 9V batteries. Is it
- true that Varta now has a true 9.0V NiCad for sale?
