Which is more powerful lithium ion or nickle cadium battery?

Answer 1

well your question is kind of awkward. a lithium battery is a cell battery, so i will outline all types of batteries and you can pick which you meant.

Lithium Ion/ Lithium Polymer batteries- These are the most expensive, longest lasting, and lightest batteries. they have the highest power density and have no battery memory (that's when u recharge a battery before its empty and it wont go back to empty)- making them the best batteries for most applications. they have high amperage and voltage. BUT BEWARE

lithium batteries have two flaws; you need a special charger and you CAN NOT let them completely run out of battery. if you don't follow these rules, you battery will not hold a charge and become useless.... these are rechargeable.

Nickle Metal Hydride- these are great all purpose durable batteries. they have slightly lower chaarge life amperage and voltage that lithium, but they do not have the care problems that come with lithium batteries. NiMH batteries MAY be fully discharged if you wish, but do not need to be. also they can work with the normal battery chargers.... these are rechargeable

Nickle Cadmium- these are probably the WORST rechargeable batteries. They MUST be fully discharged or else they lose part of their chargelife- this is called battery memory. this means either leaving whatever ur running on until it dies, or buying a special discharger. these batteries also have less power than NiMH in terms of both amperage and voltage.

Regular non-rechargeable batteries- lowest amperage, variable voltage. non-rechargeable by definition >.<

i wouldn't use these except for cheap, low power applications... like... flashlights. nothing you should be using often.

Answer 2

yes
