Digital camera reviews of Energizer L91BP-8 Lithium AA Photo Battery (8-Pack)
Digital camera Review: Best battery for camera flashes
Summary: 5 Stars
I primarily use these batteries in my Nikon SB-600 Speedlight Flash. I started using them about a year ago after much frustration with the lifespan of normal alkaline batteries. I am not a professional photographer but it is a pretty serious hobby (addiction my wife would say) of mine, and nothing drives me more crazy than my equipment becoming the limiting factor of what I want to do creatively. Replacing batteries in the flash on what seems like a weekly basis is annoying--running out of juice in my camera flash at the wrong moment is much worse and can even be devastating depending on the context.
Thankfully these excellent lithium batteries from Energizer are truly superior in performance over either normal alkaline or rechargeable batteries. I get 500-700 shots out of a set of these, which makes them economical compared with the seemingly less expensive alternatives.
It is possible to find these batteries in larger packs at big box stores, but they're actually the same price per battery overall. I prefer them shipped free to my door, even if they were slightly more expensive.
These are great batteries for virtually any photography application weather in a point-and-shoot digital or in a flash unit like the SB-600. As other reviewers have mentioned, they are not superior when used in low drain applications like a computer mouse. Stick with normal alkaline or nimh batteries for those uses.
Digital camera Review: Best battery option
Summary: 5 Stars
Worth the price. They cost about 2x more than regular alkaline batteries, but last at least 4-5x longer. I've had a pair in a seldom used (about twice a month) Flip camcorder for over two years and every time I power it up, it's ready to go.
Great investment.
Digital camera Review: Best non-rechargeable batteries ever used
Summary: 5 Stars
These batteries are just awesome! I wasn't sure at first to invest on these because of the higher price tag. But now I thank myself for switching to e2 Lithium. Yup! My Canon A80 runs and runs and runs without a need for battery replacement. I am just surprised because I always had to carry atleast 2 sets of batteries as spares before. Not anymore.
I just bought 3 multipacks to use in my wireless headset, mice, even kid's toys too. Thanks to Energizer for yet another reliable product.
Digital camera Review: Better than NIMH for occasional digital camera use...
Summary: 5 Stars
Last year I purchased a set of 4 Energizer Lithium batteries for future use. But when I turned on my digital camera about two months ago and again found that the NIMH batteries had discharged during non-use, I went ahead and put in a set of these batteries. I did it mainly to see how well they would do by comparison, but also because I did not have any NIMH batteries charged at the time. About 300+ pictures later (most with flash) the lithium batteries are still working well. I did not take all the pictures at the same time, but rather a few here and a few there, anywhere from 1 to about 50 over the last two months.
I do believe NIMH batteries are still the best choice when using a camera frequently and taking a lot of pictures each day. I have taken hundreds of pictures in a 2-3 days period on the same set of NIMH's. But I also believe that Ultimate Lithium batteries are worth the extra $$ for their convenience, better shelf life and not having to worry about whether they are charged when you need them. Too often I have found that NIMH batteries had discharged or lost most of the charged when I had not been using my camera.
Digital camera Review: Dead Batteries
Summary: 1 Stars
Got the two packages of AA batteries. Opened the first package and ALL four battaries are DEAD!!!! I tried in a digiatl camera, a clock and another device and amazingly,they have no life. Battaries are brand new, they look brand new, so what gives here?
