Digital camera reviews of SANYO SEC-N-TG12SET-GEN 4 POSITION CHARGER & TRAVEL CASE
Digital camera Review: Great value
Summary: 5 Stars
Great value for the kit of batteries, shells to convert the AAs to C and D batteries. Convenient and great for things that require a lot of battery use like cameras, gaming systems, etc. Holds a long charge and the value in the pack is fantastic.Digital camera Review: If you're going to get rechargables, get these!
Summary: 5 Stars
I read many great reviews for Eneloops and could not wait to try them. I should note first that I did not buy them from Amazon, but from my local Costco. They have this exact same set. I was currently using Energizers and Sunpaks in my LaCrosse BC-900 charger. The Energizers worked great and had great capacity at 2500mAh for AAs. The Sunpaks were hit-and-miss. Most would charge the first time, but then show up as a bad cell the next time I put it in the BC-900 and would not charge. They would still carge in my old Sony charger, but I couldn't test/refresh them in the BC-900 anymore.
But this is a review of the Eneloops. And let me tell you, they have none of the problems I had with the other batteries. I need batteries mainly for my many console game controllers, a couple keyboards, flashlights, and my kids toys. For this purpose, the Eneloops are a godsend. Though my other batteries had great capacity, they would not last very long even if I didn't use them that often - due to their normal self-discharge cycle. Since my devices only get intermittent activity, I found myself always charging batteries just so I wouldn't be caught with a dead battery. With the Eneloops, they have less capacity but since they discharge so slowly, they have more juice after 4 weeks and even more after that. If you want specifics, read some of the other reviews. There are others who ran detailed tests with their BC-900. I'm not detailed enough to document everything.
I have used both the AAs and AAAs from this set, but haven't tried the charger or the adapters yet. I did test-fit one of the adapters and it seems ok. The adapters are a nice one-piece unit and the batteries slide in from the bottom. This is a much better design than the 2-piece ones that snap together. I recommend these for what most people use batteries for (intermittent use). You will last much longer between charges. I will save my other batteries for when I know I will be using it all up in a day (when capacity is more important). I have already bought 3 more sets to replace batteries in more devices. Even without the charger, for me this set is cheaper when I factor in the cost of purchasing adapters.
Digital camera Review: very expensive
Summary: 4 Stars
Eneloops are great batteries, but this exact same kit costs only 27 dollars at a popular warehouse club (Cos**o).Digital camera Review: Awesome for the Wii !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
These are by far, the best batteries we've used in our Nintendo Wii remotes. I'm converting over to all eneloops in my house! Digital camera Review: Great Batteries for my XBOX 360 controllers
Summary: 5 Stars
I love these batteries. They are what I use for my xbox 360 controllers instead of regular batteries that need replaced every few weeks. The batteries have paid for themselves already. You get such a great deal with these batteries because you get 8 AA 4 AAA and a charger. Also, you get the C and D adapters that I have used.
