Energy density |
Ni-MH cells offer 30-40% higher energy density compared to Ni-Cd cells |
Lower memory effect |
Less prone to memory effect than the Ni-Cd. Periodic exercise cycles are required less often |
Environmentally friendly |
No cadmium mercury or lead. Contains only mild toxins and profitable for recycling |
Storage and transportation |
Transport is not subject to regulatory control |
High self-discharge |
The Ni-MH has about 50 percent higher self-discharge compared to the Ni-Cd. But nearly ten times worse than lead acid or Lithium batteries |
Limited Life Cycle |
The performance starts to deteriorate after 200-300 cycles if repeatedly deeply cycled |
High maintenance |
Battery requires regular full discharge to prevent crystalline formation. Ni-MH should be exercised every 3 months |
Expensive |
About 20 percent more expensive than Ni-Cd |
Telecommunications |
Cordless phones, Transceivers and pagers |
Audio and Video Devices |
Digital cameras, Camcorders, Portable DVD,VCD,MD and CD players |
Remote Control Toys |
R/C Cars, R/C Ships and Model planes |
Power Tools |
Electric drills, Sanders, Screwdrivers, Saws, Polishers |
Other Applications |
Electric bicycles, Shavers, Massagers, Flashlights, Electric tooth brushes, Handheld vacuum cleaners, Handheld terminals |
