No, not all rechargeable batteries have the memory effect. GP batteries use a new technology; unlike sintered plate type rechargeable cells GP rechargeable NiCad cylindrical cells with modern foam electrode technology do not exhibit memory effect.
The reason that there is no memory effect in the NiMH cells is because of the non-cadmium based nature of the cell, teamed with the modern foam electrode technology, ensuring that no undesirable memory effect is present.
The best type of battery to use in a high drain application is an alkaline cell. These will perform head and shoulders above a zinc carbon cell in this type of application. The alkaline cells are designed to be used for high drain applications.
