Just bought a bunch of NiCad batteries to use in my Meshtastic/Meshcore nodes instead of lithium ions... Well see how well they work, but I think it'll be safer especially since they are unattended in a forest, and maybe they will work better in the harsh winter temps (-30c frequently).

I've had bad voltage sags on cold days from my lithium ion batteries that cause weird reboots and other stuff. Probably hard on the batteries charging in the cold too.

I absolutely don't want to start a forest fire in the summer because of a hurt battery, from my dumb mesh nerd activities.
