NiMH batteries are classed as the “green” choice as they are environmentally friendly and do not contain heavy metals. NiMH batteries are generally safe, always refer to the manufacturers guidelines.

Avoid keeping the batteries in drawers with metallic objects like paperclips, coins, other batteries or household items such as steel, wool, aluminium foil and keys. If these touch, this can be a potential fire hazard. Keep the batteries in their original packaging until ready to use.

As with all batteries you need to take care and dispose of batteries carefully, DO NOT throw batteries away with your standard rubbish. Batteries can be disposed of in re-cycling disposal areas and collection sites for household hazardous waste or of you are dealing with very large quantities of batteries you can contact specialist re-cycling centres.

When working with NiMH, they are very sensitive to charging characteristics and can explode if mishandled or overcharged as this generates heat.

• Put the batteries in fire-proof container.
• Never leave batteries unattended when charging.
• Do not put batteries on wood surface or carpet when charging
• Always use a battery charger which is rated for NiMH Cells.
• Never expose NiMH batteries to extreme temperatures.
