Weight (g): 138
Chemistry: Li-Ion
Capacity (mAh): 2300mAh (Typical)
Intelligent: No
Number of Charge Cycles: 300
Intrinsic Safety Std: No

Reliable: These have a significantly lower self-discharge rate than NiMH batteries.
Small: They are smaller and lighter compared to NiMH batteries.
Higher Voltage Output: A single cell can deliver 3.7v while even two NiMH cells can only give 2.4v.
Faster Recharge: Li-ions can be charged in about 1-3 hours, depending on capacity. This is much faster than the 10-12 hours needed for NiMH batteries.
Temperature Tolerance: These can better stand the low temperature and warmer environments compared to NiMH cells.
Higher Energy Density: This means that the battery carries more charge per gram than a NiMH battery.

Weight (g): 230

Chemistry: NiMH
Capacity (mAh): 1400mAh (Typical)
Intelligent: No
Number of Charge Cycles: 400
Intrinsic Safety Std: No

High Energy Density: These have an average of 2200mAh (milliampere-hours—the amount of current in milliamperes that it can give multiplied by the time in hours.) This is greater than the 1500mAh seen in Li-ion batteries. These are the standard numbers in 1.2v NiMHs and 3.7v Li-ions.
Compatibility: If you have ten gadgets using a NiMH battery, you can use a single pack to power them all. Not simultaneously of course. NiMH uses standard sizes so they are compatible with all devices using sizes such as AAA or AA. Compared to Li-ions, the sizes depend on the manufacturer or model of the device. I did see some AA-size Li-ion around the market so it may be worth checking them out.
They Are Safer: They have less active materials compared to Li-ion batteries. NiMH can pop if they are overcharged too much or short circuit but this is nothing compared to a Li-ion which can potentially blow up.
Can Be Completely Discharged: By this I mean they can be brought down to 0 charges if you can get it to reach that. They will still charge, just don’t let it suffer from reverse polarity or else they will be damaged.
