Digital camera reviews of Rechargeable NiMH Batteries, 2650mAH, AA size, 8 batteries per pack DC1500
Digital camera Review: HR6 DC1500 These are junk batteries
Summary: 1 Stars
These are the junk HR6 DC1500 which only hold their charge for a brief time. After 10-15 days storage, they will be completely depleted. Use these the same day they are charged for full capacity.Digital camera Review: I Agree with the Positive Reviews
Summary: 5 Stars
I experienced whatever the "Tax Guy" did. The batteries were cheap, they work great, last long, and I can use them over and over. I'm sure that they have already paid for themselves.
I got them quickly, there were what the seller said they were, and they worked as advertised. In my family, everyone takes a ton of pictures, and I'm constantly switching out the spent batteries for the recharged. It's totally worth it.
Digital camera Review: I'm Not buying anymore Duracell's
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought the one on the picture (black and green) and after just a little over 3 months they don't hold the charge for half a day Horrible! i've even have a good charger it's the La Crosse Technology BC-700.
But the Tenergy pre-charge bought at the same time still working fine, this is really bad, now i'm going to try the
Sanyo Eneloop or the Powerex AA 2700mA.
Hope this helps
Digital camera Review: Impressive - Best AA Batteries I Have Ever Tested
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are looking for AA batteries with significantly more power than other commonly available AA NiMH batteries, get the Duracell 2650mah if you can find them. I had been searching for high-performance AA batteries for quite some time before I stumbled across these in a CVS. My purchase was a wise one as these have outperformed every other AA I have tested, including those rated at 2500mah.
My specific application was supplying power to a homemade bicycle light that uses the recently-released, world's most powerful LED emitter: the Seoul Semiconductor P7. It has a 900 lumen output and consumes up to 12 watts of electricity. This means in the best of circumstances, I will get about 70 minutes of runtime at full power.
While I don't have any test equipment to truly assess the performance of these batteries, I am struck by their apparent performance compared to that of other AA batteries in my bicycle light. Swapping out 2500mah batteries from an unnamed Asian vendor with these, the light overheated in a matter of minutes. I actually had to change my resistor circuitry to accommodate the extra power. While this performance doesn't indicate a longer battery life, it does suggest the batteries have a greater current output a given voltage, leading a to a greater power output. Note that I have the LED module crudely connected in series with two large resistors instead of a more elegant DC converter setup. In practice, I have been getting over an hour of runtime.
For some reason, these batteries are difficult to obtain in retail stores. The same CVS sells 2450mah (or less) AA batteries by Duracell. While I haven't tested these, the new rating could merely be an act of conservatism. I was, however, able to purchase a second set of these batteries on eBay from what appeared to be overstocked merchandize vendor. They also appear to be available from Amazon at the time of this review.
All things considered, I would highly recommend these batteries, especially if you have a high-performance application. They appear to well worth the effort of ordering them from an online vendor.
Digital camera Review: It's a battery
Summary: 3 Stars
It's fine. I use them for my Canon Speedlites. I do notice it takes a LOT longer to charge these than my other batteries so I just make sure to charge them day before I start my other batteries. But overall they are fine for what they are.
