Batteries

[kaiser]

Have a digital camera which eats batteries. Whats the best solution for rechargeable at the moment? Have had a plug in charger before but always forget to put it on, are the usb ones any good? Cheers

I use rechargable Energizer NiMH in mine,they last about a week without having to recharge,i take a lot of pics too

change the camera! or use the everready lithiums,they really do do what they say on the box

I would recommend the 'Instant' batteries that can be found on the model power website. If you are like me you will charge them and take a few picks, then when you come back to the camera the batteries are flat. 'Instant' batteries hold there charge for a lot longer than a normal rechargable batteries.

if it takes AA batts then you need to look for a rating of 2500MAH ( mili amp hours) these are available as rechargeables

Batteries are available seperatley too to give you a couple of sets.. tey will certainly give you longer run times.

I hope that helps

Yup the higher the mAh the better.

Applying all this info to my tight nature I found aldi's had 2300mah batteries for 3.99 for 4. Will let you know how they get on.
