The CD-16 was offered for HTs that used NiMH packs ... I do not believe it is "Li-Ion-aware."
The ?charging algorithms for those chemistries are different.
?Will it work? Yes - but, if, indeed, a NiMH charger, you will not realize the total number of discharge-charge cycles compared to properly charging it. And considering Li-Ion are only rated at 300-350 complete cycles (compared to 1,000 for NiMH), proper charging is even more important.
