Cordless phone batteries. Why are they so horrible?

I remember the first cordless phone we had when I was growing up. It was a very new thing to have a cordless phone in your home. That phone lasted many years and never had it%26#39;s batteries replaced.



It%26#39;s 2007 and the life of batteries has shortened. When you complain the telephone maker tells you that you shouldn%26#39;t of put it back on the base until it was dead. If you tell them you didn%26#39;t they tell you, "oh wait, that model needs to be returned to base between every use".



Obviously it is a money making scam for them. Eventually we all cave and go buy another cordless phone!



Why do we have to put up with this crap? Is there no honest business people in this world anymore?!



Answers:

You want honest business people. Oh honey, that%26#39;s almost an impossibility. And with phone batteries, well, you are right, they never last and the companies always have some lame excuse! I guess they feel that making money in a dishonest way is the only way they can make money. As long as you use either NiMH or lithium ion batteries there should be no problem. ~



Check Thebatteryguys for those. thank you for letting me know that i am not telephone retard once again panasonic leads the way with innovation, and design...



cordless phones used to have batteries that had to be purchaced for that partucular phone, or for that particular brand...



I recently purchaced a panasonic DECT phone kx-tg1034s and guess what? it uses standard Ni-MH AAA batteries!



what does this mean? well it means that IF the batteries ever lose there ability to maintain a charge, then I can purchace ANY AAA size Ni-MH batteries, and not be forced to over pay, for a "cordless phone battery"



Its best to stay away from uniden and vtech cordless phones.. they are the bottom of the barrel.. You dont have to put up with anything. Change to a land line phone. End of problem.
