Correct. Ni-Cad batteries will give you ample warning they're about to run out of juice. They'll perform at peak level for some time, and as they're near drained, they'll slow down gradually until there's not enough juice to cycle the gun.

Ni-MH batteries will keep going at full strength, and you'll abruptly notice them starting to weaken then fail to cycle your gun.

I am told that it doesn't have to be discharged to charge it.
Correct ?
Correct. Only Ni-Cad should be discharged completely.
