Cobalt vs Manganese Oxide vs Manganese Nickel? From my limited research, it appears that IMR and INR are the safest, and don't really need protection circuits (as much), and have much higher "C Ratings" for current draw. Have these chemistries replaced the ICR batteries? If not, when should you use the ICR over the IMR or INR? Does one have more charging-cycles than another? Are there any benefits of ICR over IMR or INR for certain applications?
Is ICR just older technology, replaced by IMR, and then replaced with INR? Should I just always go for INR when in doubt? Any help appreciated, thanks!
