I do know a fair amount about batteries, I built a NiCd battery back in 1984
that has lasted
through some 100,000 charge / discharge cycles, yes every 90 plus minutes
for over 19 years.  The battery
still works perfectly and is powering the longest lived amateur radio
spacecraft in history that is not a
derelict polluter of the radio spectrum.



  Cool! Which satellite is it?

 I've worked UO-14 a couple of times with a 5 watt HT on a discone antenna.
