What is a NiMH Battery?
A nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) battery is a rechargeable battery commonly used as an alternative to non-rechargeable alkaline batteries. NiMH batteries are often compared to NiCD batteries, which are another type of rechargeable battery. However, NiMH batteries offer several advantages over NiCD batteries, including, but not limited to, the following:
- They have higher energy density for the battery’s weight and size
- They’re more environmentally friendly
- They’re widely available and used in a wide range of products that use AA and AAA batteries
- They don’t suffer from “memory effect,” an issue that can negatively affect a battery’s performance
