This chart indicates the discharge curve of Maha NiMH battery in various discharge rates. The discharge is measured in the unit of "C", or capacity. 1.0C means 1.0 x capacity of battery (i.e. If the battery is 1,200mAh, then the discharge rate is 1,200mA or 1.2A), and 0.2C means 0.2 x capacity of battery.

As you can see, Maha NiMH battery remains at a high voltage even near the end of the cycle. Maha NiMH battery will hold full voltage (1.2v/cell) up to 80-90% of usage (varies on discharge rate).

NiMH Battery Charge Curve

This chart indicates the charge curve of general Maha batteries.

This chart indicates the retention curve, or the ability the battery can hold a charge. As different temperature, the battery has a different retention capability. For Maha battery, you can leave it on the shelf for a period of time without loosing all charged capacity.
