RE: [DIY] Will cold shrink my rechargeable batteries?

 

My personal opinion is that you shouldn't try it.  But ... If you want to put them in the freezer, in a zip-locked plastic bag, go ahead and try it.  First see if there is a warning on the battery package about freezing.  Remember: the worst thingis you can't use them. Or you'll break your radio when the batteries expand.  Or the batteries would simultaneously explode in the freezer creating a small black hole that will suck up the entire world.  But I don't think that last one will happen.

Subject: [DIY] Will cold shrink my rechargeable batteries?

 

I recently bought a fairly expensive Internet radio that takes four D batteries, either alkaline or rechargeable. There are two battery compartments, one holding one battery and the other three batteries.  The radio is capable of recharging rechargeable batteries by itself.


My problem is that the rechargeable batteries that I have (EBL brand) are slightly too long for three of them to fit in the space provided.  Alkalines fit fine, but they are slightly shorter than the rechargeables. 



My question is, if I put the rechargeables in the refrigerator or freezer, would they shrink a tiny bit and therefore fit in my radio? And would this harm the batteries in any way?
