with mobile phone batteries you cannot always do a full charge. this seems 'acceptable' aslong as you do 1 full charge at least monthly.

i've recently got a radio with a inbuilt re-charging system. takes 4xaa ni-mh rechargeable batteries. but for one reason or another i'm not always able to charge them fully. so just wondered if it is ok to treat them like mobile phone batteries as above, or should they always be fully charged?
