[quote name='Strell']Eneloops paired with a good charger. There's a guy at Amazon named "NLee the Engineer" who writes up amazingly detailed reviews of both batteries and chargers. It's borderline scary how well this guy explains it and understand everything. Look him up and figure it out from there.
But yeah, Eneloops are - as the the hep cats would say - the bomb diggity, playaskillet.[/QUOTE]
Seriously, who is this NLee guy? Is he actually an engineer? Or just some guy that had 300 dollars worth of batteries and chargers, and WAAY too much time on his hands.
NLee's conclusion was that for the most part the "pre-charged" or basically the current generation of rechargeables are mostly the same.
The difference lies in the chargers.
That being said I too use the eneloops. Didn't expect EVERY CAG to use them as well.
Oh, I almost forgot, rechargeables are great for console controllers and cameras, but they won't work in some carbon monoxide detectors. Rechargeables aren't as good in products that use electricity at a very slow rate over a long period of time.
