Very carefully
NiMh is usually considered the most direct replacement of NiCd.
Can be just about anything, from a small button battery for a small LED, to NiCd to Li-Po.
NiCd, Lithium, Lood, NiMH, Li-ion, Alkaline. I can't tell you which types are appropriate for your medical device(s), anyway! (NiCd and Lithium battery types must be disposed off properly).

No, but refrigerating NiMh/NiCd batteries will increase their shelf life. Never freeze batteries.
Yes, as long as you use an NiCd charger, but you really shouldn't. NiMh has twice the capacity of NiCd and it is less expensive. NiMh also contains no toxic materials so it is better for the environment.
You could replace it with a battery with a higher mAh rating and the battery would last longer between charges. Increasing the voltage (V) may lead to better performance, but it could severely damage the electronics. I would highly recommend NOT increasing the voltage. You could get more than twice the lifetime with an NiMh battery instead of an NiCd. You will need an NiMh compatible charger. I would highly recommend NiMh over NiCd.
Well i charge mine for 2 hours. For me the battery was in an airsoft gun magazine when i was younger. I remember that i over charged it and it broke so i wouldnt go over 2 hours. hope that helps.
A nickel-metal hydride battery, abbreviated NiMH, is a type of rechargeable battery similar to a nickel-cadmium (NiCd) battery but using a hydrogen-absorbing alloy for the negative electrode instead of cadmium. As in NiCd batteries, the positive electrode is nickel oxyhydroxide (NiOOH).A NiMH battery can have two to three times the capacity of an equivalent size NiCd. However, compared to the lithium-ion battery, the volumetric energy density is lower and self-discharge is higher.Common AA batteries (penlight-size) have nominal charge capacities (C) ranging from 1100 mA·h to 2700 mA·h at 1.2 V, usually measured at a discharge rate of 0.2×C per hour. Useful discharge capacity is a decreasing function of the discharge rate, but up to a rate of around 1×C (full discharge in one hour), it does not differ significantly from the nominal capacity.The specific energy density for NiMH material is approximately 70 W·h/kg (250 kJ/kg), with a volumetric energy density of about 300 W·h/L (360 MJ/m³).It is common to refer to most NiMH products as Batteries, even though the word Battery refers to the grouping of multiple cells. As a result sizes AA, AAA, C and D are technically Cells while the 9V size is a real battery.
Hi, you can find these batteries on a lot of places the most known on internet is amazon : http://www.amazon.com/Ryobi-P100-Nicd-Battery-2-pack/dp/B0026SRMZ0
Looks like both are NiMH as NiCd batteries are generally not available for more than 800mAH rating. NiMH are common to have 1600mAH and more rating per AA cell. - Neeraj Sharma
Yes, both NiCd (Nickel-Cadmium) and NiMH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) batteries can be used in solar patio lights, but NiMH batteries are generally preferred due to their higher capacity and lower environmental impact. NiCd batteries can suffer from memory effect and may have a shorter lifespan, while NiMH batteries provide better performance in terms of energy efficiency and longevity. It's important to check the specifications of the solar lights to ensure compatibility with the chosen battery type.
