nickel cadmium battery
Rechargeable NiCd cell
A nickel cadmium battery is a rechargeable battery that uses nickel oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes.
Once common in portable electronics and power tools, nickel cadmium batteries have largely been replaced by lithium-ion and nickel-metal hydride alternatives, though they remain valued for their durability and ability to deliver high discharge currents.
Often abbreviated NiCd or NiCad.
