Had another thought on that one.
The TVs only have to get past the 90 day(?) warranty, and it wasn't
critical if they did loose settings.
In my app, we warranted for a year, more with "special" customers, and the
nicad held not only the application program, but also stored transactions
(AKA money)  A bit upsetting to loose. Figure 3-10 transactions at $50-$200
each? Mr Merchant tends to get upset when this goes "poof".

The battery manufacturer may have specific advise on this, which I'd be
disposed to follow.
