Digital camera reviews of Rechargeable NiMH Batteries, 2650mAH, AA size, 8 batteries per pack DC1500Digital camera Review: Check out the benefits of the pre-charged batteries before you buy. Summary: 3 Stars
Duracell still makes the best quality batteries; including this set. But there are new better technology. This NiMh is old school. Check out the benefits of the pre-charged batteries before you buy this set. Duracell also make one of the best quality low-discharged batteries out there. Honestly, except for the higher capacity (2650mAH), the low-discharged batteries has more benefits. You can also use them on your remotes or clocks and will last longer between charges. The cost difference is also not much.
Digital camera Review: Complete waste of money Summary: 1 Stars
I had two sets of these that I used regularly for 4-5 years or so on long family vacations -- took them camping, in the mountains, to the coasts, everywhere. They were fantastic. I always kept one set charged in the camera, and a spare (charged) set in the camera bag, so I was never caught without batteries.
Until I lost one this summer and purchased a couple new sets.
I get about 20 photos from the set in my camera, and the set in the bag loses its power within a week. They are worthless -- and I'm thinking about mailing them to a Duracell corporate office demanding my money back. Indeed, until I get a refund, I'll never touch a Duracell again. Unfortunately, I don't have my receipt or packaging, so returning them to the store I bought them from is no longer an option.
I half wonder whether they accidentally made a massive bad batch. If so, they should create a recall program for people.
Digital camera Review: Completely dead after 12 months.. Summary: 2 Stars
I bought an 8pack in January 2009 for use in a Canon PowerShot Pro Series S5 IS 8.0MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom digital camera. The camera uses 4 AAs and would inhale the cheapie Costco branded alkalines. However, I could only depend on one set of 4 AAs, while the other set would last about the time it took to recharge the first set. Then, after a year, these AA batteries exhibit the similar problems. They charge up nicely, but within about 10 photos, the camera starts flashing low battery. The poorly performing set just teases me by to powering up my camera so it can turn off. I've been using the Maha Powerex MH-C9000 WizardOne Charger-Analyzer all this time and have run it through the break-in cycle, but they're dead.
I'm running now with the little IMEDION AA 2100mAh NiMH Rechargeable Batteries w/Holder- 4 Batteries Per Pack that I purchased at the same time, but never used. Low discharge indeed to have that much power after a year.
As opposed to aklaline batteries, I've saved some landfill space by using these Duracells, but spent about the same amount of money without the confidence that a new set of cheapie AA can give you. Two stars.
Digital camera Review: DUDS... won't hold a charge Summary: 1 Stars
Another bad review... please listen to us and AVOID these batteries. They worked fine for the first few charges, but now they won't run a basic AM radio for more than an hour before dying. Do not purchase!
Digital camera Review: Decreasing Quality Summary: 3 Stars
I have been buying these batteries for the last 4 years. I think the quality was good a couple of years ago, but the new ones don't hold the charge like the old ones used to do. My charges has been a disaster also. I have a CEF14N model and it gets HOT and turn OFF. Again, the quality was better in my same previous charger a couple of years ago.
