A classic battery charger can handle either NiMH or NiCd batteries. A NiMH charger usually works with NiCad cells, but not vice versa. Most battery chargers are designed to work with AA or AAA batteries. Some higher-end models charge all sizes of batteries. NiMH and NiCad batteries can also be charged in solar battery chargers. Lithium-ion batteries, however, require different chargers that are also available in a solar model.
