The Nickel Metal Hydride battery is a better version than the Nickel Cadmium battery and has a lesser ‘memory effect’. The Lithium Ion battery is the most advanced batteries commercially available today.They are free of the ‘memory effect’ and provide a much smaller size, lighter weight with a better talk-time and stand-by time.
