Digital camera reviews of Rechargeable NiMH Batteries, 2650mAH, AA size, 8 batteries per pack DC1500

Digital camera Review: Good batteries, if they can hold their charge
Summary: 2 Stars

I've bought either of these (green and black label) , none of them seem to hold their charge well. Voltage will drop below 1.3 V after just a week or so. Waste of money. The older Energizer 2500 mah batteries I got hold their charge much better.

Digital camera Review: Good performance
Summary: 5 Stars

I have a fast charger and my problem is that the batteries never get fully charged to their max capacity, the trick is to let the batteries and charger cool down for half an hour and repeat the charging a couple times. That, or get a slow recharger to ensure full power.

Digital camera Review: Good product
Summary: 5 Stars

I use the batteries for remote control, toy engines, and I think they are very good.

Digital camera Review: Good while they last...
Summary: 1 Stars

... but that's the definition of any battery. And unfortunately, these batteries leak faster than any rechargeable cells I've ever encountered.

The nominal charge on all NiMH cells is 1.2V. Usually right after a charge, they'll be 1.36 or so, and even after a few months should be around 1.3. However, all these batteries leak far faster than that. After two weeks of just sitting in a box, of the eight I charged, two were down to 0.94 volts, others hovering near a volt, and the best of them barely reading 1.2.

I'm afraid Duracell has permanently damaged their reputation with me because of this. Oddly, I bought an identical-looking set from them two years earlier, and they are still going great. There must be some defect with these -- but judging by the most recent reviews here, it is hardly an isolated incident.

Digital camera Review: Great Batteries
Summary: 5 Stars

I know there just batteries, but the price was great for 8 2650mah batteries. They work great in my wife's coolpix 990 camera that takes 4 of them, and they last much longer than most. No more whining ( these batteries aren't worth a crap ) Thank You for a great price and fast shipping!!!
