My BG II has the same behaviour with both my T32's. I don't use the BGII that
often, but it has not let me down yet. Also the behaviour was described as
normal by the shopowner who sold me the BGII on a trade show (but that COULD be
in his own interest however). However, FvL told me that I could trust him as he
has dealt with him before.
When using the BGII and the T32 both filled with NiCad's Full-Flash charging
time is reduced from about 8 sec's to about 1,5-2 sec's, so repetitive shots can
be done much faster. Also, this combo is far fster than using the AC adapterII
with the T32, which gives recycling times of about 10 sec's without NiCad's in
the T32.
So, AFAIK fire away!
