The Ni/H reactor produces lots of excess heat because it has lots of reactions going on per second. A pinch of uranium may be fissioning and not produce measurable heat, but a A-bomb produces lots of fission per nanosecond and it produces lots of excess heat. It is a matter of quantity with the quality being equal.
