I did a search of this forum for "powerex" and found a lot of posts with information about the batteries in question.

come on guys!! any comment is highly appreciated!!:wave:

the deal from a B & M camera shop near my place is about US$ 20.50/pack of 2 x D size and US$14.75/pack of 2 x C size!!

Are they proper 'C' and 'D' cells or just 'AA' cells in 'C' and 'D' sized wrappers?

A proper 'C' cell will have a capacity of at least 3000mah and a proper 'D' at least 4000mah perhaps as high as 12000mah.

Are they low self discharge?

I believe they are actual cells. Here is a website: http://www.mahaenergy.com/store/listcategoriesandproducts.asp?idcategory=12

The C cells are 5000mAh and the D cells are 11000mAh.

I personally have their AA cells for my camera and they are very excellent. The AA are 2000mAh, and if I compare them to my Energizer 2500mAh batteries, the Powerex beats them hands down, like 3 times the usage before recharge.

If only Maha made odd sizes like 18650 and such......then they would have my business.
