I'd get that Ni-CD over the Ni-MH

and... yeah, what Greylocks said... you didn't posted in the right section. Just be cautious, next time, mod's patience have ran out in the last few years.
This is old and incorrect thinking. NiMH technology has greatly improved in the past few years and personal experience with a range of NiMH batteries compared to NiCad batteries shows that NiMH is better in the cold. There is no reason to buy NiCad nowadays.
