Thanks Rodney.
Before I order from them have you bought from the website before? If so is it all ok?
Regards,
Dave

I have. They're OK, but I bought branded batteries.
Battery Force are good too as are My Memory.
Shop around, buy the most reliable at the best price.

I did some nerdy reasearch on rechargeable AA recently, for using in a digital camera.
Apparantly Sanyo are the daddys.
There is a guy who runs tests on batteries and posts his results on some forum I found, he measures how long they retain charge for, how long they run stuff for, their capacity after how-ever-many charges; all sorts of stuff.
He rated these.
Although they have slightly lower capacity Than the 2700 or 2800mah batteries they retain a higher percentage of their maximum capacity for longer after continual charging and use.
I bought some recently but haven't had cause to use them yet.

Just looking on the Maplin website.
Some rechargeable Batteries are 'tagged' which cost a little more.
What's tagged?

Cakey said "no one knows a womans mind". Not even a woman.
Bough loads from 7dayshop and never had a problem. Some cheap lens filters for cameras and flash units, studio in a bag and a small tripod.
