Voltage vs mah
Many people prefer to classify batteries based on voltage and mah. They like to look into these two factors separately. Without going into the complicated […]
NICD vs NIMH
Ni-Cds have good performance in high-discharge and low-temperature applications, but are subject to the problem of “memory effect” (the cell remembers and maintains the characteristics […]
