Default Difference in NiCad replacement batteries


"gregz"


Depending on current draw, nicads will deliver more current due to lower
impedance. For motors that can be a problem.



** Simply not true.

AA cells in NiCd or NiMH have closely similar impedances and hence max
current outputs.

The figure is between 10 and 20 milliohms in both cases.
