Laptop battery difference Metal hydride vs Lith ion

I received a new battery for my Dell, It fit fine, charged up fine, both 11.1 volts pc runs fine. But after installing I noticed the new one is an MHD, and the one I took out was a Li ion. Does anyone...

Ok I contacted the seller about returning it, and he said the new battery actually is a lion battery and it is perfectly safe, He said if it fails to operate correctly he will replace it w/ the same. And it is operating to full satisfaction, including capacity performance.
How can I complain......a $11.95
battery that seems to be operating to full performance.
So I give it up. Thanks for all the replies.
