A broad range of nickel metal hydride rechargeable batteries is available, ranging from cylindrical to prismatic types. Twicell SLIM prismatic batteries are ideal for more compact, efficient applications.

In pursuit of higher capacity, SANYO has increased Twicell capacity nearly twice as high as standard Cadnica (NiCd) batteries, meaning Twicell batteries work much longer. This performance makes Twicell an effective power source for many kinds of high-tech equipment. Twicell batteries can also withstand over 500 charge/discharge cycles for superior economy.

SANYO Lithium-Ion batteries are capable of generating an amazing 3.6V per cell. So, only 1/3 of the batteries is required compared to conventional nickel-cadmium and nickel-metal hydride batteries.

Lithium-Ion batteries provide a higher energy density per unit volume and unit weight than nickel-cadmium and nickel-metal hydride batteries. Also, their higher voltage and lighter weight contribute significantly to the downsizing, weight reduction and simplified operation of electronic devices.

Over the years, CADNICA batteries have gained considerable renown for their outstanding technological features and excellent quality. Sanyo Electric Co. Ltd.'s Battery Division has received ISO9002 accreditation for its industrial sealed Ni-Cd battery plants, an international quality guarantee standard. CADNICA batteries are designed to withstand continuous overcharging and over discharging in a sealed environment. Moreover, their excellent performance is approved even in the field of space development for satellite applications.

Sanyo's efforts towards increasing capacity and reducing size and weight have made possible an extensive lineup of Sanyo CADNICA batteries consisting of over 87 models with ratings from 45mAh to 20,000mAh. This means there is a CADNICA battery to suit a wide range of applications, even when space is limited. Sanyo also manufactures assembled batteries that are precisely suited to the design requirements of specific equipment. Overall, CADNICA batteries make a significant contribution to increased space efficiency, a major requirement reflecting industry's trend toward more compact equipment design.
