Rechargeable NiMH Batteries Outlast Their Precedessors By 2X

Claiming to last twice as long as its standard CADINCA (Nickel-Cadmium) batteries from a single charging cycle, the firm's Twicell rechargeable nickel-metal hydride batteries provide a cost-effective, high-energy power source for OEM applications. The batteries, available in cylindrical and prismatic types, use a positive electrode made of nickel compound and a negative electrode made of a hydrogen-absorbing alloy. They can be rapid-charged in only 1.2 hours.
