Did you know that some camcorders that originally came with NiCad batteries also have a NiMH replacement available? You might be able to upgrade and use a NiMH battery in your camcorders (rather than a NiCad), but check with the camcorders manufacturer or your documentation first. You'll want to be sure that your battery charger can charge both NiCad and NiMH batteries. The most common camcorders battery available now is the Li-Ion battery. The reason for this is simple. Li-Ion batteries carry more capacity, and are lighter and quicker to recover from the heavy load a flash puts on the battery so you can keep taking digital pictures quickly. If you want to find a good quality charger for your spare battery just use the above cross reference and we'll show you what chargers are available for your digital camera battery.

Please recycle your old camcorder batteries. NiCad, NiMH and Li-Ion batteries are considered hazardous to the environment and they are able to be recycled. Find out where to recycle your digital camera battery by going to the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation website.
