READ MOREWhile nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) and lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries play essential roles in engineering systems, they have different applications. NiMH batteries replaced the older nickel-cadmium batteries and tend to be more cost-effective than lithium-ion batteries, with a life cycle of roughly two to five years [1].
READ MOREThe self-discharge rate of NiMH batteries is higher than that of lithium-ion batteries. The process of NiMH batteries on the market is different. Some batteries may even lose up to 25% – 35% of their initial power within a month. The average voltage is relatively lower than that of lithium-ion batteries, about 1.2V.
READ MOREThe two most common types of cordless drill batteries are Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd) and Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion). Ni-Cd batteries are cheaper and have been around for much longer than Li-Ion batteries. However, Li-Ion batteries are generally considered the better choice due to their longer lifespan, lighter weight, and higher energy density.
