Hello i have a question about charging a 12v NiCd battery pack with a simple lm317 charger like this one:
**broken link removed**
What i want to know is if i leave this lm317 charger connected to the battery without a power adapter (ac-dc 15v-24v adapter) will it discharge the battery on a longer time ?
I want to build in this lm317 circuit inside the battery housing and from out side only connect the power adapter when needed charging.
And i have another question what is the maximal voltage that i can use for charging a 10 cell 12v nicd pack, is 24v good or too high ?
