The safe temperature range when in use is between −20°C and 45°C. During charging, the battery temperature typically stays low, around 0°C (the charging reaction absorbs heat), but as the battery nears full charge the temperature will rise to 45-50°C. Some battery chargers detect this temperature increase to cut off charging and prevent over-charging.
When not under load or charge, a Ni-Cd battery will self-discharge approximately 10% per month at 20°C, ranging up to 20% per month at higher temperatures. It is possible to perform a trickle charge at current levels just high enough to offset this discharge rate; to keep a battery fully charged. However, if the battery is going to be stored unused for a long period of time, it should be discharged down to at most 40% of capacity (some manufacturers recommend fully discharging and even short-circuiting once fully discharged), and stored in a cool, dry environment.
Charging methodA Ni-Cd battery requires a charger with a slightly different voltage than for a lead-acid battery, especially if the battery has 11 or 12 cells. Also a charge termination method is needed if a fast charger is used. Often battery packs have a thermal cut-off inside that feeds back to the charger telling it to stop the charging once the battery has heated up and/or a voltage peaking sensing circuit. At room temperature during normal charge conditions the cell voltage increases from an initial 1.2 V to an end-point of about 1.45 V. The rate of rise increases markedly as the cell approaches full charge. The end-point voltage decreases slightly with increasing temperature.No. It is a strategically valuable metal for its use in nuclear reactors, but almost everyone who has a rechargeable battery has NiCad or nickel-cadmium. You can buy pure cadmium metal, although cadmium powder is toxic if allowed to combust.
A rechargeable battery (also known as a storage battery) is a group of one or more electrochemical cells. They are known as secondary cells because their electrochemical reactions are electrically reversible. Rechargeable batteries come in many different sizes and use different combination of chemicals; common types include: lead acid, nickel cadmium (NiCd), nickel metal hydride (NiMH), lithium ion (Li-ion), and lithium ion polymer (Li-ion polymer). Rechargeable batteries can offer economic and environmental benefits compared to disposable batteries. Some rechargeable battery types are available in the same sizes as disposable types. While the rechargeable cells have a higher initial cost, rechargeable batteries can be recharged many times. Proper selection of a rechargeable battery system can reduce toxic materials sent to landfills compared to an equivalent series of disposable batteries.[dubious - discuss] For example, battery manufacturers of NiMH rechargeable batteries claim a service life of 100-1000 charge cycles for their batteries.

Not enough information. What's the MaH of the battery? MilliAmp Hour/Amp Hour? What wattage is the battery? Lithium Ion, or Nickel Cadmium?
The two common rechargeable battery types are lithium and NiCad. One is called a lithium ion battery. The other is commonly called a NiCad battery, containing both nickel and cadmium.
No. It is a strategically valuable metal for its use in nuclear reactors, but almost everyone who has a rechargeable battery has NiCad or nickel-cadmium. You can buy pure cadmium metal, although cadmium powder is toxic if allowed to combust.
Nickel CadmiumAll Panasonic Nickel Cadmium batteries are classified by the federal government as a hazardous waste and must be recycled. These batteries are accepted for recycling by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation's (RBRC) Battery Recycling Program. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on recycling your used Nickel Cadmium battery or go to the RBRC website at www.rbrc.org for additional information.http://www2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/vEnvironmental?storeId=15001
Nicad means nickel/cadmium
A D battery is one of the most recognized batteries available. However, there are many types of D batteries. The most standard is the alkaline. It is not rechargeable. Those made of lithium, also non-rechargeable, offer a greater life than the alkaline. There are two types of rechargeable D batteries. They are nickel metal hydride and nickel cadmium. The nickel metal hydride are now preferred as nickel cadmium are said to have environmental effects.
Yes
Nickel-Cadmium
Nickel-metal hydride batteries are a type of rechargeable battery with an electrochemistry similar to nickel cadmium batteries, but the eliminate the toxic cadmium metal.The older nickel cadmium battery uses nickel oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes, while the newer nickel-metal hydride battery keeps the nickel oxide hydroxide electrode it uses a complex alloy that readily absorbs hydrogen atoms forming a metal hydride, it is the absorbed hydrogen within this hydride that actually functions as the active electrode in the battery. In addition to eliminating the toxic cadmium (making recycling or disposal easier and cheaper) this change also provides other advantages: higher battery capacity, no memory effect, etc.Some of the different alloys used in the metal hydride electrode are:titanium nickellanthanum neodymium nickel cobalt siliconcerium lanthanum neodymium praseodymium nickel cobalt silicon
Nikon batteries come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Each battery is different depending on the camera. Most Nikon batteries now are small square batteries that are rechargeable; they have a relatively good lifespan. Nikon batteries are made out of either Nickel Metal Hydride or Nickel Cadmium, depending on the battery. Both of these are rechargeable. When the battery does not hold a long charge between recharges, it is time for a new battery.
They are a replacement rechargeable battery where Nickel Cadmium types were used. They tend not to suffer from the 'memory effect'. This is the condition where a cell does not supply it's stated Ampere Hour capacity if it is charged again when part way through it's discharge cycle.
NIHM stands for nickel metal hydride battery. The NIHM batteries are similar to other types of rechargeable batteries like the more common nickel-cadmium NiCd types but with much more charge capacity.
