Rechargeable Batteries


What Are The Different Types of Rechargeable Batteries?
Batteries in portable consumer devices are principally made using either Nickel Cadmium (NiCad), Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) or Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) technologies.

NiCad
NiCads batteries offer less energy densities than NiMH. NiMH delivers approximately twice the capacity of its NiCad counterpart. NiCad batteries tend to suffer from what is called the "memory effect"

NiMH
NiMH batteries are more environmentally friendly than their NiCad.NiMH batteries are less prone to develop"memory effect"..

Li-Ion
Li-Ion has quickly become the emerging standard for portable power in consumer devices. Li-Ion batteries produce the same energy as NiMH batteries but weigh approximately 35% less. Li-Ion batteries do not suffer from the memory effect AT ALL.
