    Best way to maintenence Eneloops?

    I know fridge is not applicable, however, since it is a NiMH battery, storing it in the fridge helps lower it's discharge rate by 5% or something. Most people cant be bothered to do so as the rate that the fridge helps it is too low.

    Best way to maintenence Eneloops?

    So you guys are saying, It's bad to do refresh cycles on the eneloops, then put them into the fridge and leave them there?

    Releasing tight fitting batteries from charger

    Haha. This is the method I use when my AAA's get stuck in my charger as it's a very tight fit for them.

    Tackle boxes? I don't know what they are. Haha.

    Batteries: What is your inventory?

    Where might one find one of those funky battery boxes? I've checked local superstores, such as Walmart, in the fishing section, automotive/hardware section and basic storage boxes section. No storage containers seem to fit batteries vertical, or horizontal.

    Lithium batteries versus NiMH

    My take on it would be that it depends how frequently you use your camera, and how MUCH it stays on. (I think I just repeated myself) 1. If you take A LOT of pictures (with or without flash), meaning your camera would be on for a LONG period of time, during the day, then get high capacity...

    President's Choice Rechargeables---Eneloops in disguise?

    It's been confirmed long ago that PC Pre-Charged White Top batteries are rebranded Eneloops. Here's a recent post about a guy who confirms it even more as he states he can literally see the Eneloop label behind the PC sticker on the charger...

    Do you ever top off your rechargeables?

    I rarely top them off. I have quite alot, and carry spares whenever i go places with devices that uses AA batteries. When i get home, I just put my used NiMH's through a refresh cycle, and off into the fridge.

    Soshine Hi-Tech LCD NiMH / NiCD Super Quick Charger is it Reliable?

    I do agree with having a smart charger such as the MaHa, and the Lacrosse would give you the better value for a long time to come, but to me, since i had no funds in paypal, nor would my friends lend me $50 at once to invest in a MaHa C-9000, this SoShine charger tends to suffice for me. But...

    Soshine Hi-Tech LCD NiMH / NiCD Super Quick Charger is it Reliable?

    I'm currently using this charger. I needed to cut time of refreshing my cells so i bough another charger. Both work nicely. I cant tell you how well the refresh function works out of my own opinion as i dont have damaged cells that can be revived with refreshing.

    Anyone heard of "Amex 2700mAh" batteries?

    Hmm. I've never looked at it that way before. Now having all that said you make a very clear and good point. I doubt these batteries would be true 2700's like the Sanyo 2700's. I've already have enough Duracell 2650's in the fridge, i'm sure those will our perform these "Amex 2700's".

    Anyone heard of "Amex 2700mAh" batteries?

    Haha, well of course $4/4 is good. Here in Toronto, Ontario, $10 or less for a pack of 4 duraloops are considered good already, and many people are hopping on them. Assuming these batteries are actually "known" to some extent, i'd consider $12/4 actually pretty okay. But thanks for your input...

    Anyone heard of "Amex 2700mAh" batteries?

    I found a guy selling some batteries. Some Duraloops, then Shopper Drug Mart batteries, then some "Japan made 2700mah's". The 2700's he's selling are $12 for a pack of 4. Not bad price I guess. Only thing is, anyone heard of AMEX? Doing a google search comes up with chinese sites selling many...

    Rayovac Hybrid = Duracell Pre-Charged (Black)?

    The rebranded Eneloops were the white tops. I have a couple of them. I haven't even touched the black topped ones because i knew they're not rebranded eneloops, and I thought they wouldnt offer the same performance as Eneloops. Arent all these LSD cells more or less around the same performance?
