NiMH C Cells For Radio

[pobox1475]

I am looking to get 8 C's along with a MH-C808M charger to use for my satellite radio that runs off 8 cells. The charger will allow me to charge them all at once. Generally what cells are the best? I usually know ahead of time when it will be used and can charge accordingly. LSD's if available in this size would be nice as long as capacity is not severely lower.

Accupower Evolution if you prefer the LSD cells.

Ahh, found those :thumbsup:. 4500 mAh. Are there any reliable worth while cells that are not LSD capable of yielding a significant increase in capacity?

I only own the evolutions but Silverfox tested the non LSD accupower c cells and got 4.9Ah at 3 amps. I tested my Evolutions and got 4.5Ah. So even though they are rated as 1.5Ah more they don't deliver.
