Nickel-cadmium batteries are DC voltage sources. It is replacing lead-acid batteries and has become increasingly popular in recent years because of its characteristics and advantages. It is small and compact and can be easily moved from one place to another. The general uses of this type of battery are toys, calculators, small DC motors, and so on. The principle is the same as that of the lead storage battery. The metal is coiled with cadmium and a barrier layer and kept in a redox state so that the chemical reaction produces a DC voltage. Batteries have been popular for a long time and more and more chemical elements are used in order to increase their efficiency. This has resulted in a compact structure.
Nickel-cadmium batteries cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy when discharging, and convert electrical energy back into chemical energy when charging.
Nickel-cadmium batteries are secondary batteries because the chemical reaction is reversible, so the battery can also be recharged.
The cathode (positive plate) of a nickel-cadmium battery is made of nickel hydroxide, and the anode (negative plate) of the electrode is made of metal cadmium.
An alkaline aqueous solution is used as the electrolyte between the two electrodes.
Operating temperature range of -4 - 158°F
No sulfation associated with nickel cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries
No shedding/loss of plate material
The best battery available for abusive or harsh environments
Low internal resistance
High rate charge and discharge rates are possible
Up to 10C discharge rates for short periods typical
Flat discharge characteristic (but falls off rapidly at the end of the cycle)
Tolerates deep discharges - can be deep cycled

It is a device that produces a DC voltage based on a chemical reaction between related substances. In a nickel-cadmium battery, reduced oxide material is used as a substrate, around which a nickel layer and a diaphragm are used. The voltage of a NiCd battery is about 1.2 V. When connected in series, 3 to 4 cells are usually assembled together to obtain an output of 3.6 to 4.8 V.

When connected in series, 3 to 4 cells are usually assembled together to obtain an output of 3.6 to 4.8 V.
Typically, NiCd cells have a voltage of about 1.2 V each, and multiple cells are connected in series or parallel to obtain the desired voltage. In addition to the voltage, the specific energy is about 50-60 Wh/Kg. This is slightly higher than NiFe batteries, but relatively lower than NiZn and NiMH batteries.
The specific power is 200 Wh/kg. this is slightly higher than NiFe batteries, but relatively lower than NiZn and NiMH batteries. For nickel metal batteries it is around 170-1000. nickel-iron batteries are around 100. Energy efficiency is around 70-75%. This is slightly higher than nickel-iron batteries, but relatively lower than nickel-zinc and nickel-metal hydride batteries. For nickel metal batteries, it is around 70-80%. For nickel-iron batteries, it is around 60-70 per cent.
Nickel-cadmium battery classification is only done based on size and available voltage. Based on size it may be of AAA, AA, A, Cs, C, D, or F size. All these sizes come with different output voltage specifications. Some of them are cylindrical pipe-shaped and some of them are in a rectangular box-shaped outer case.
The nickel–cadmium battery (Ni-Cd battery or NiCad battery) is a type of rechargeable battery using nickel oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes. ... A Ni-Cd battery has a terminal voltage during discharge of around 1.2 volts which decreases little until nearly the end of discharge.

LED Emergency and Exit Lights contain a Ni-Cd battery inside the unit. The first step in determining the functionality of an exit or emergency light is to perform a push-button test of the light. A button is located on the bottom or side of the emergency/exit light that, when pressed, activates the back-up battery system. You can determine if the battery needs to be replaced by holding the button down for at least 30 seconds. The problem with this preliminary test is that NiCad batteries discharge at 100% power until the very last moments of the battery's life. To clarify, if a Ni-Cd battery is down to 15% of its life, it will still discharge at 100% power as if it's fully charged. Therefore, to ensure that all emergency and exit lights in the facility are discharged for at least 90 minutes, it is recommended that the batteries be replaced every 3 years.
