309497 2007-07-03 10:31:00 For instance the C/10 charge rate for a 500mAh NiCd cell would be 50mA.

This is known as the trickle charge rate and the cell will not be damaged if it is left on this rate for a long period, later model cells have higher trickle rates than this, sometimes as much as C/3.

Read the specs.

309499 2007-07-05 05:38:00 C with a subscript of 10 might be a capacity (Ah) rating on a 10 hour basis. A battery which will give 1A for 10 hours will have half the capacity of a battery which will give 1A for 20 hours. Graham L (2)
