I was working for a laptop computer manufacturing house some years
ago, I have studied the data book of some batteries manufacturers, the
data book from Panasonics Ni-cd batteries said they will lost half of
the charges in half a year. I think the discharge of rechargeable
batteries are not linear, they will discharge fast when they are fully
charged.
