Product Discontinuation: Ni-Cd Batteries?

On the 26th September 2008, a new EU directive came into force preventing the importation of Ni-Cd and other batteries into Europe. Ni-Cd batteries will only be available until our UK stocks are exhausted. Alternative types of battery for current equipment has been available for some time, so there should be no problem in finding an substitute. For older equipment where Ni-Cd was the only type of battery available, replacements may not be available.

Care should be taken to ensure you have the appropriate charger for alternative battery technology that is used for your equipment.

Please dispose of your Ni-Cds safely. Most municipal recycling centres have facilities for the disposal of batteries, and you may also be able to leave the defective batteries with your replacement supplier for disposal.

Should you require any further advice about disposal, please contact your local recycling centre.
