They both accept the overcharging abuse of long sunny days with no charge control equally well. If you were charging them at a high rate with a NiCd charger, they have the potential to overcharge at a high rate, generate a bunch of heat and usually fail quickly. With a slow charge from a solar panel, it's a non-issue.
