Cons- Higher discharge rate on the shelf
-A little more expensive. | |

| Ni-mh is supposed to replace ni-cds. Ni-mhs are supposed to have longer battery life than nicads. And of course the obvious, they dont need to be discharged.
note: battery life relates to the amount of times you can fully charge a battery.

| Nickel Metal Hydride batteries are superior or equal to Nickel Cadmium batteries in every aspect. You pay the price for NiMH though. THey are normally twice as expensive. But you only have to worry about the price if you are buying a battery with more than 2000MaH.
Its just better to have a NiMH, since you don't have to worry about the infamous memory syndrome. | |

| I also go Nimh. It was a lot of $$$, but it's a mini type, and lasts almost as long as my Nicd that came with my Echo 1. Also, no discharging!!! | |
