Best Answer

nickel metal hydride;

slightly higher voltage than Ni-Cd (Ni Cad, or Nickel Cadmium) and better for high current/high draw applications. Pre-2005 NiMh batteries had a higher self-discharge rate than those of today, which are typically purchased pre-charged. Li-ion (Lithium Ion) is probably a better rechargeable battery all-round.
