AaronR103:So if I'm reading the previous thread corrctly, neither NiMH or Li-Ion suffer from the memory effect, Li-Ion gets more burn time out of a smaller battery, but loses 20% of it's capacity each year regardless of use.
Is the smaller size of the Li-Ion (2.5" difference in canaster length) worth both the extra money and the shorter life span?

cool_hardware52:BTW "Memory" is a myth, even in Ni-Cads. I view with suspicion anybody promoting any battery as "memory free"
