    You did not mention charge memory. Is it true that lithium ion batteries do not have a memory? In other words, if you charge a lithium ion battery before it is fully discharged, it will still be able to take a full charge? It is my understanding that nicad batteries will eventually not be able to take a full charge if they are continually charged before fully discharged. I used to tie down the trigger on my nicad powered tools to fully discharge them before charging to avoid the "memory" problem; at least as I perceived it.
