Since I can not seem to locate a rechargable N cell anywhere, I purchased a 2/3 AAA for the Shasta Body I just got. I have always wanted to try the N cell with my Baltic XLR head. Well- it fits,
but now my dilemma is charging it. I am thinking about getting some rare earth magnets from Radio shack to get it to height to fit my AAA charger.
Any advice?:popcorn: Clint?
 
I've been using Eneloops since they first became available, I purchased 24 AAs from Hongkong before they were available in Australia, they are all about 3 years old and holding up very well.
Did you just pick up some Eneloops, or have you used them for a while?
Just the other week I bought 20 Varta ready2use AAs for the Grand children's toys but don't have any reports back yet
 
these are the interstate 500mah N cells i'm using.
some N cells are a little short, so i add a touch of solder
to the button tip..but work fine either way when using 2xN bodies.

i use them in a 2xN baltic and a 1xN shasta

My cheapo Eneloop charger wont charge them for whatever reason,
but i'm guessing the charger could be fubar as i dont really use it often.
The Triton has no issues with them.

Mighty kind offer- thanks Clint. I saw this Lenmar Universal Charger BCUNI- not sure what kind of quality it is - says it will do 2/3 AAA and N.
I should just save my $ for a First responder.
