Cheapest Ultralast UL20AAH2000 AA NiMH Rechargeable Battey Bulk Pack


I have been buying these before (from Microcenter). They are very cheap and I thought it was a very good deal. Particularly their 2600mAh for 5 bucks! But...

Cons:
-Of all the NiMh batteries I tried. This has the most number of failures. Some just dies. Some would hold very low charges after just a few cycles.
-It is bigger in circumference compared to other batteries. Which will not fit some of my cameras and gadgets.
-Exterior is made of paper and gets easily smashed, deformed.

Pros:
-Price. but for this kind of quality... not worth it.

Also: With all the new low discharge batteries flooding the market (Eneloops, Rayovacs, Duracell, Kodak, etc.) There is no longer any reason to buy this kind of batteries. Even this company is now manufacturing their own Hybrio.

Buying Juice Rechargeable Alkaline Batteries, Size AA, 4-Count Packages (Pack of 3)


I am having troubles getting the alkaline batteries to work in some of my "alkaline" items at home. I am not sure what the trouble is. I need to research this part a bit more. I don't know if the batteries in general are not the same V. than my older ones rechargeable batteries or what. The alkaline ones are not working with like our thermostat for our furnace. They do work in some of the remotes. Both need Alkaline. They seem to be good batteries if the item in our house will work with that alkaline battery, it is confusing why all the items don't work with alkaline when needed.

I also purchased the same exact battery but different size - AAA and had troubles with several not holding a charge or not even charging the battery. THere were several that wouldn't even charge from the batch. It could have just been a glich in assembly or something. I know nothing is perfect and errors happen where it is broken. Amazon is going to refund me they said.

I bought a new universal battery charger and had the batteries charged up. There were several that the light wouldn't come on in the charger and never did. I also use our battery tester and there was no charge.

I contacted Amazon and they sent an email they will refund me for the faulty batteries. I need to buy some more alkaline batteries and will try the Juice ones again as I haven't found many "alkaline rechargeable batteres" out on the market. I am not sure why they will not work the same as the older alkaline rechargeable batteries I had back from the 80's. Yes they are just now wearing out and I am having to replace the batteries. I have both types of batteries as several different items we use batteries either need alkaline or NIMH.... So I will search for more Alkaline batteries.

There are lots of NIMH batteries. I need the Alkaline. Hopefully this wasn't tooo confusing. :0 ) I will try them again. Amazon is good at replacing or refunding items so far.Get more detail about Juice Rechargeable Alkaline Batteries, Size AA, 4-Count Packages (Pack of 3).

Purchase Nickel-Metal Hydride Rechargeables Battery For 9V


I wouldn't recommend these (or any other 9V rechargeable) for smoke detector applications. They drain down after 120 to 180 days and need a charge...which is ok, if you are disciplined enough to make this necessary recharge. They will save you money over time compared to the alky bats, so you make the call. Chargers for these bats are also pricy and you need to make sure you have a charger that will handle your battery. An 9.5 charger will fry an 8.5 bat...beware.Get more detail about Nickel-Metal Hydride Rechargeables Battery For 9V.

Energizer 399BP Watch Battery


The battery was a very good price, however, somehow my order was repeated three times without my knowledge resulting in me getting charged for extra batteries and the shipping and handling. If I had ordered extra batteries on my original order I would have not had to pay S/H on the other two. Something needs to get checked out. Also on my subsequent order for a tooth whitener special from Church & Dwight, I ended up getting a scam to get two more deliveries for $18 each on a monthly plan NOw just how much tooth past can one person use in one month? Let alone 2 tubes each month. You might want to check this one out for yourself as there was nowhere when ordering did I find anything saying I was signing up for monthly deliveries at $18 each.

10 slot IC Advanced Charger for AA and AAA Ni-MH / Ni-CD batteries with 2 slots for 9V batteries Top Quality


When you purchase a Smart Charger your getting the best. When you buy a "Quick Charger" your getting the worst. The new technology is kind of hard to grasp for a non-techie. So, I will make it simple for you. Buy AA batteries 2900 MaH rated and you'll be very happy. Anything lower in MaH you won't be happy. Buy AAA's at 1000 MaH or higher and you'll be happy. Anything lower and you wont. Buy a smart charger that takes 9-15 hours to charge AA's and 3-6 hours to charge AAA's. If it takes less time to charge your batteries then your battery life won't last as long and you'll be buying more rechargeable's then you have too. This is the best charger I have found. There is one more that charges batteries COLD that is really the best but at $120.00 I'll hold on to this one for $40.00Get more detail about 10 slot IC Advanced Charger for AA and AAA Ni-MH / Ni-CD batteries with 2 slots for 9V batteries.

AccuEvolution 'AAA' Pre-Charged Ultra Low Self Discharge NiMH Rechargeable Batteries Order Now


I'LL BE READY THIS CHRISTMAS!!

Last year, as Christmas approached, I was determined to do something about the waste that goes with Christmas gifts, toys, and throwaway batteries. I bought numerous packages of Nickel Metal Hydride batteries in various sizes at a local electronics chain,hoping to break the vicious cycle of throwaway batteries in my family. As you may have guess, no good deed goes unpunished.

The first problem was that the darned things had to be charged before they could be used - so the kids got to wait a day to try things out. We finally charged up ALL the batteries, including the extras - just to be ready. Fast forward to May: My wife 'discovered' that all of the batteries were flat, including the unused ones that we had charged. You guessed it. She threw them all away!

After reading about the new Low Self Discharge type of NiMH battery, I bought a couple of packages of AccuEvolution AAA's and couldn't be more pleased. They have lots of power, come charged and stay charged. We'll be ready this Christmas.Get more detail about AccuEvolution 'AAA' Pre-Charged Ultra Low Self Discharge NiMH Rechargeable Batteries.

Fake batteries - Cheap Imitation from Networker-7
I made a mistake by ordering this item from a reseller. I bought them from "Networker-7" and he sent me a perfect set of batteries, but something was wrong. The battery package was badly sealed (like it never passed QC) and when I opened it and checked the batteries, the colors and fonts were slightly different from my other original Cybershot Batteries, which came with my camera. I compared them carefully and realized this are fake sony batteries, just an imitation. Must be some cheap-made-in-brazil ones with a printed sticker on them or something like that.

Save Duracell Batteries in Reclosable Storage Pack, Size 9 Volt (Pack of 4)


Duracell 9 volts are the only batteries I use in the wireless microphones we use for our instructional video business. We replace the batteries before every shoot and sometime run for up to 10 hours non-stop. Wireless microphones use a lot of power and we have found that the Duracell batteries can make it through an entire day of shooting, lasting about 25% longer than the less expensive generic types we tried before.

We also use Duracell 9 volts in our smoke detectors at home. They might be more expensive than some, but they are worth it in the long run.

Purchase Kodak - Battery 4 x AA NiMH


I use these batteries in the Kodak zi6. After getting burned quite badly by the Energizer e2 batteries I was skeptical as to whether these batteries would be any better. Research but not actual practice on my part had stated that the precharged batteries hold the best charge and last the longest. I can now say without a doubt that these Kodak rechargeables are among the best investment I have made in a while. I have recorded nearly an hour give about 10 minutes or more while recording at vga mode. And the battery had not died. I don't like running a set until they die. Even at HD the recording time had to run to nearly an hour without having to change out. I use a Rayovac charger to charge them, which does require a 13.5 hour charge but with the way these batteries hold their charge it's not a big deal. If you're a zi6 user, pick these up. Or do what I did and pick up 2 packs of them. But only open one, even at an event where I'm shooting a lot of footage, I haven't had to come close to using beyond four of them.Get more detail about Kodak - Battery 4 x AA NiMH.

Energizer ECR2032 Lithium 3-Volt Coin Cell Battery Top Quality


How do you write an interesting and descriptive review for a battery? I guess I'll try to spice things up a bit:

It was a sad day when my Bose Wave Radio remote went dead. I wanted to turn on ESPN1000 and check the game scores, but the remote just wouldn't respond. The next five minutes I spent determining that yes, Bose Corp. really are morons and do not provide a manual on/off switch on the exterior of the radio. This caused me to further speculate on the fate of someone who either lost or damaged their remote, and the extended amount of time and frustration that might cause them in trying to get a replacement. Bose, seriously why don't you add a freakin' on/off switch to your otherwise awesome radios? Is aesthetics so important that it can overrule function?

Fortunately, using my superior understanding of battery dynamics, I was able to revive my existing battery by rubbing it on my pant leg (and no, this does NOT charge the battery through static electricity like some claim. It works because it heats of the battery and allows it to recover a small amount of stored charge) just long enough to turn on the radio and check the scores. Then I immediately logged into Amazon and used my superior understanding of electronics pricing to snag a couple replacement batteries for a 1/3 of the cost of just driving to Radio Shack.

Griffin Technology 4002-TJUICE TuneJuice Battery Backup for iPod and iPod mini Immediately


Watching video on an iPod drains the batteries pretty quickly. I normally use a Tekkeon rechargeable Lirhium Ion external battery pack with my iPod and other small electronics. I had, frankly, forgotten that I owned this Griffin product.

In terms of every day use for shorter trips, I like it better in some ways than the Tekkeon.

Why? I don't need to carry an AC adapter for charging!

I can use rechargeable 9v batteries or the disposables that are available practically everywhere. Even with a couple of 9v batteries, this is a lightweight package.

A word of caution: do not view this as a means of recharging your exhausted iPod battery. It doesn't work well in that role. Instead, use this as a supplemental power source. Plug it into the iPod while the iPod battery is still showing a 50% or better charge. You want to deplete the 9v battery first, before you grind down the iPod battery.

Use it the right way and you'll get several more hours playtime out of your iPod.

Great little add-on, especially for iPod video watchers.

Lowest Price AA Eneloop Precharged NiMH Battery Retail (2-Pack)


The biggest drawback for Nickel Metal Hydride batteries is the shelf life. I got gadgets and toys all around the house, so I constantly charging batteries to have them ready when I need them. There will be very little juice left if you put them in the shelf unused for a couple of months. A waste of time and energy. Hence, one of the biggest advancement in battery technology is the arrival of the new low discharge Nickel Metal Hydride batteries. This is another great step in helping the environment. I have very few left of the old batteries since I started to replace all of them with low discharge batteries. Eneloops and Duracell are 2 of the best of its kinds.

Pros:
-Low discharge.
-Fine quality product. Well constructed
-Conventional size and dimension. I had other batteries that I have to use a screwdriver to remove from my camera because it is fatter than other "AA's".
-You can use your existing NiMh charger for these batteries

Cons:
-Valuewise, why bother with only 2-pack? Get a 4-pack or a multiple battery set
-Maxes at around 2000-2100 mAh
-More expensive than ordinary NiMh
-Not available at many brick & mortar storesGet more detail about AA Eneloop Precharged NiMH Battery Retail (2-Pack).

Save Moixa MXAA02 USBCell AA Rechargeable USB Cell Batteries 4 Pack Kit


This product (Moixa MXAA02 USBCell) is based on a great idea - the kind of idea that makes you smack your forehead and exclaim "Why didn't *I* think of that!" Basically you take a '3/4 AA' NiMH cell, and attach an USB-powered charger on top of it. Now you've got a rechargeable AA battery that can be charged from any USB port. So you'll never be caught without a battery charger - as long as there is a computer nearby.

Great idea aside, there are practical limitations for this USBCELL:
- It is very expensive (about 4 times the cost of a typical AA NiMH cell).
- Its capacity is only 1300mAh (compared to 2000-2700mAh for a typical AA NiMH cell).
- Its charging time is relatively long (5 hours to charge to 90%)

The product description claims that you can also recharge the USBCELL in an "approved NiMH charger" at 250mA for 7 Hours. But make sure that the charger is a 'smart' one. A timer-based 'dumb' charger will badly overcharge the USBCELL, because it treats all cells as having a typical capacity of 2500mAh.

It is true that you don't need to buy a separate charger for the USBCELL. But the economy of scale is stacked against it in any demanding appliances such as digital camera. For the price of just two USBCELL, you can buy a good charger+battery package (such as the Sanyo USB Charger or Sanyo Travel Charger). This way, you get much greater battery capacity and shorter charging time. For anything that requires more than two AA cells, the USBCELL solution becomes even less cost-effective.

It is also true that using USBCELL instead of disposable alkaline cells can reduce your 'carbon footprint' on this planet. But the same can be said for any rechargeable batteries. Compared to a typical AA NiMH cell, the USBCELL requires more energy to produce, and has a shorter lifespan (lower capacity means it has to be recharged more often). Therefore it generates more waste in the end.

Of course, for certain niche applications (such as wireless mouse) the USBCELL is still a good option. At least it looks cool, and makes a great conversation piece.Get more detail about Moixa MXAA02 USBCell AA Rechargeable USB Cell Batteries 4 Pack Kit.

Cheapest Amazing Rayovac 4.0 Rechargeable AA Batteries



I have tried a lot of pre-charged batteries like Eneloops, Duracell, Rayovac Hybrids, & Yuasa Enitime. Compared with Rayovac's Hybrids, the Rayovac 4.0 is very similar in almost every aspects.

I wanted to know how much mAhs it will pack after a discharge; each AA battery averages around 1475 mAhs on discharge. So, that's how much it has out of the box. Charging them, I got an average of 2050mAh. Not bad, not far with the rest of the guys.

The way they are marketing these batteries is a mystery. The package says ready-to-use and rechargeable, but you will not know that unless you look closer where it is written smaller on the side like a fineprint. After you throw away the package, it is even harder to tell on the battery itself as the only indicator that they are rechargeables is the word NiMH. It does not say anywhere rechargeable at all. Not even mAh rating is printed anywhere. Batteries are made in China.Get more detail about Amazing Rayovac 4.0 Rechargeable AA Batteries.
