Running in a mobile phone?

Do you actually need to charge the battery overnight these days? I belive that advice applied to nickel batteries but not to the new Lithium-Ion varieties.

Isn't it that you just need to charge it until it says fully charged, and they you're good to go?

Running in a mobile phone? I've not tried it Mark but I think it's pretty tough going, they're a bit small these days.

Yes you are right.

NiMH: ~14 hour charge before first use. Booooo!

Li-ion: charge it up and start tinkering with your new phone :D
