Digital camera reviews of Rayovac Hybrid - Battery 4 x AA NiMH 2000 mAh
Digital camera Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
I use these batteries for Wiimotes and digital camera, and they are great. They are especially suitable for digital cameras, which are used infrequently yet drain lots of power. The fact that these batteries don't lose charges much allow me to leave them in my digital camera. I don't think I'll go back to regular alkalines because of these reasons:
- They last very long in digital cameras.
- You can replace half used batteries with fully charged ones anytime.
- These batteries are environmentally friendly.
Digital camera Review: A Winner from Rayovac
Summary: 5 Stars
NIMH batteries are all but essential with today's high-drain electronics. There's simply no reason to rely on normal alkalines for, say, a digital camera (except in a pinch). NIMH rechargeables, while initially more expensive, pay for themselves after the first recharge. The only major problem I had with NIMH batteries was that they discharged energy. This means that you can forget about storing them unless you like dead batteries. I had wished someone would make rechargeables that held their charge during storage. Lo and behold, I happen to come upon these gems from Rayovac. I like the Rayovac brand. I used their rechargeable alkalines years ago and enjoyed many hours of music on the portable CD players I've gone through. In fact, I've still got the charger for those batteries and it still works perfectly. I then moved on to their standard NIMH batteries, but had my issues with them as stated earlier. I figured I'd give these batteries a try since after my good experiences with the brand. I also needed a good set of batteries since I had gotten a digital camera last year so my finding these couldn't have come at a better time. Let me just say that they've worked out just great. They last a long time even after constant use. And, of course, there's that all-important feature of retaining their charge. I was so impressed that I bought another pack so I have a steady rotation in case my camera or my CD player need some juice. So if you need a good set of rechargeables, give these a try. I haven't been disappointed yet.Digital camera Review: Cheapest Price for the new breeds of popular brand pre-charged NiMh
Summary: 5 Stars
The new one from Rayovac is rated 2100 mAh.
These are the new breed of Nickel Metal Hydride batteries. Now you can use them for your TV remotes, clocks, etc. where you need longer shelf lives. One of the reasons why NiMh batteries have become so popular was the proliferation of digital cameras. But for those casual shooters, who sometimes leave there batteries in the cameras and 3 months after pick it up for another special occasion; they often found it as a surprise that their batteries are depleted. Well, with these new batteries.
Pros:
-Low discharge. Ordinary NiMh batteries discharges even just sitting on the shelf.
- Works with your existing NiMh battery chargers.
-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".
-Cheapest price as compared to comparables (Eneloops, Duracell)
Cons:
- More expensive than ordinary NiMh
- Eneloops and Duracell last a bit longer
Digital camera Review: A great rechargeable for a great price
Summary: 5 Stars
After having been among the early adopters of rechargeable batteries, I was a skeptic for a long time. I can remember my dad coming up with a complex system for determining when we would need batteries so he could recharge them freshly. I also remember getting all worried about if the batteries would overheat in the charger and kill us all (usually kid's paranoia).
Last year, I finally decided to try these; I was sick of constantly buying batteries in bulk and making monthly trips to the nearest battery recycling bin to discharge a little of my environmental guilt. Lo and behold, these really did have a strong charge fresh out of the package, they charge relatively quickly, and they even last longer than standard alkaline batteries in my digital camera. Go Rayovac!
Digital camera Review: Outstanding performance, and great long term value!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Rayovac Hybrid rechargeable batteries are excellent. I have 3 small children, so we have lots and lots of toys requiring batteries. These work great in Wii remotes too. In fact, my original reason for buying these was that the Wii remotes were burning through batteries quickly since we were playing all the time.
I was spending a small fortune on traditional alkaline batteries. After reading an article about these batteries, I started buying them (Wal-Mart). I now own 24-28 of the AA size and 8 of the AAA size, and they've already paid for themselves. Too bad they don't come in C and D sizes. They do take a while to recharge - I've never timed it but it seems to take about 6 hours.
Originally I was worried that my wife and kids would throw them out when they needed recharging (thinking they were alkalines), but the battery design/coloring is unique enough that it hasn't been a problem. In fact, now my kids wonder why we have to throw away the batteries we have that aren't Rayovac Hybrids.
Buy these batteries and enjoy the performance and the savings.
