Cordless phone batteries

[Chasloyal]

Could someone please tell me if any rechargeable AAA's will do for my Philips VOIP841 Skype/Dect Phone or do I need to buy a specific type?

I've had this phone a good few years now and the batteries just don't hold any more than an hour of charge these days so desperately need to get some new ones but it would be handy to know exactly what will be a suitable like for like replacement.

As long as they fit in they should be ok as some phones have the batteries linked in one and a funny plug on end to plug into the phone

I can't even find any rechargeables in that size round my flat now, looking at the ones that are in it they are Phillips multi life 750 nickel metal hydride, sorry to sound dense here but looking at battery sites there seem to be different types like NI-MH and NI-CD, will that make a difference do you know?

1) Welcome to dk the worlds best website

2) Ni-Cad - nikal cadnium - not available anymore - banned by the eu
suffer with memory effect

3) Ni MH nikal meatal hydride - look for these

4) Sorry misunderstand what you mean. on shape

5) try poundland .com ?1 two batterys!

6) You MIGHT HAVE TO get a knife and remove the last 1 cm of the battery cover as phillips did this with another product - shave the last cm off away.

oh try ebay

try and get ones with the highest mAh you can, they will prolly last longer.
