Nickel Cadmium Batteries (NICD)

For users that prefer the rechargeable nickel–cadmium battery

A nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery is a type of rechargeable battery that utilizes nickle oxide hydroxide and cadmium. Ni-Cd batteries come in multiple configurations, and in different sizes. Higher voltage indicate a strong current, which gives the airsoft AEG a higher rate of fire. Higher Mah indicate energy capacity, which allows the user to play much longer. Keep in mind, Ni-Cd batteries may suffer from "memory" which can result in the battery being unable to charge up completely. To prevent this, Airsoft GI recommends that you discharge the battery all the way before attempting to charge it again.

Airsoft GI Battery Disclaimer:
Airsoft GI is not responsible for batteries that have been damaged as a result of improper operation, storage, misuse or abuse, accident or neglect, such as physical damage resulting from misuse; contact with liquid, water, rain, extreme humidity or heavy perspiration, sand, dirt or the like, extreme heat, or food; use of the battery for commercial purposes or subjecting the battery to abnormal usage conditions, or other acts which are not the fault of Airsoft GI. Make sure you understand how your battery should be used and how long it should be charged. If you have any doubt regarding the operation, charging, or storage of your battery and/or charger, ask. A charging battery should not be left unattended and should be picked up periodically while charging to check for overheating. Do not charge batteries near flammable material. For more information regarding batteries please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions or the Airsoft GI Airsoft 101 Guide.

Experienced player’s POV: NiCd batteries are great if you are looking for a battery that is going to be very robust and safe for your AEG. However NiMH batteries have about twice the energy than a NiCd battery, making the NiCd almost obsolete in terms of performance.
