* Higher capacity (milliamps) compared to Nickel-Cadmium. * Aren’t as susceptible to memory problems. * They are more environmentally friendly. * Requires a more sensitive peak detection method * Damaged more quickly during overcharge than NiCD’s * Easy to damage a cell when charging un-matched packs * Interchangeable with most NiCd batteries, nickel metal hydride (NiMh) batteries generally deliver 10-25% greater capacity than NiCds and are environmentally more friendly than NiCds since they do not contain cadmium.
