They really don't last [Posted on 2006-01-12]
I bought 4 packs of these AA batteries here at Amazon (8 batteries total) about 7 months ago. At first it seemed great to be able to just recharge them and keep using them. After about 2 or 3 charges I noticed that they don't last for more than a few uses on all of the electronics I used them for.
For instance, I used them in my Fuji digital camera and they only last about 4 or 5 pictures (w/ flash). The regular AAs tend to last me 12 or so with the flash. In my Logitech wireless trackball, they only last a couple of weeks where the regular AAs last a couple of months.
I'm now using them in my TV and VCR remotes because that's the lowest current draw I can use them for. I have AAA rechargeables by Maxell that seem to last way better in my MP3 player. It also seems to take over 6 hours to charge these batteries up. I recommend only getting a couple of these and a couple of some other brand to compare before buying in bulk.
