IC-3 was Rayovac's product line name for their 15-min
NiMh cells that featured an integrated IC. The Duracell
cells appear to be standard NiMh cells. Both charges
feature cooling fans to cool the cells as they charge,
and, as you can imagine, they monitor the current and
temperature of the cells.
There is supposed to be a new type of Lithium Ion battery coming out that charges in just a few minutes and is powerful enough to run things like drills and saws. I heard about it last year, but haven't seen it appear on the shelves yet.
