Cordless phone batteries are becoming more and more efficient over time with improvements in technology. There are some things to note that may help you in your choice of a DECT handset battery.
Batteries come in three main types, Nickel-cadmium (NiCd), Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) and Lithium-ion (Li-ion). These types of battery can vary in energy capacity and self discharge rates.
Energy Capacity refers to the amount of energy a battery cell can hold. A NiMH cell can hold more than an equivalent sized NiCd cell and a Lithium-ion cell can hold more than both Nickel based cells.
Self discharge rates (sometimes referred to as standby time) are the rates at which an idle cell not on charge will discharge over time. Again a NiMH cell has a slower, and therefore better, self discharge rate than a NiCd but the Lithium-ion cell has no self discharge although can suffer from a permanent loss of capacity over time which effectively gives it a shelf life.
This information should help you make your choice when considering which type of battery you need for your cordless phone.
