Hopefully, (and I accent the "hopefully") the manufacturers have done
their homework. Then again, maybe not; I really don't know. But, as
Bob suggests, I will be keeping an eye on it when it's on charge, at
least for awhile. However, I am wondering if the problem doesn't rest
with using chargers that are a mismatch with these batteries, at least
in most of the cases. Yeah, I know there are exceptions in the case of
cell phones, etc. etc. but I will be using the Dremel supplied charger.
And, I just can't help but wonder: are people lumping this technology
in with the Lithium-Poly stuff? Which seems to be much more critical?
Again--I really don't know.
