The nickel-metal hydride cell is currently finding widespread application in those high-end portable electronic products were battery performance parameters, notably run time, are a major consideration in the purchase decision. First adoption of the nickel-metal hydride cell has occurred in two markets, cellular phones and portable computers, which are growing dramatically thanks to significant reductions in weight and volume coupled with major improvements in performance. Penetration of the nickel-metal hydride cell technology has been strongest in premium electronic products that require premium performance. As production volumes increase and the cell technology and production processes mature, nickel-metal hydride cells are expected to compete aggressively with nickel-cadmium cells in most markets with the possible exceptions of the very high discharge rate and high temperature specialty niches.
