Personal boycot of Lithium Ion batteries
In article .com,
says...
Sounds like your real issue is with all rechargeable batteries. NiMH
and NiCad only last about 2 years as well. Li-ion batts are more
compact (higher enery density) than NiMH and NiCad, so that's why
they're more expensive.
Well no, you get 1000 charge/discharge cycles, which unless you
charge/discharge the batteries several times/day each day, should give
you a few years of life at least. But even if you only got two years, it
wouldn't matter, as NiMH batteries are cheap to replace.
