Summary: The best generation of rechargable batteries

Comment: Let's face it, the old NIMH batteries were an improvement over NiCad batteries, but would still lose their charge at the most inconvenient moments. I have found myself bringing my charger with me on vacations to ensure that my NIHM batteries wouldn't fail on me in my camera. The Sanyo Eneloop batteries have now re-defined rechargeable batteries by holding their charge when not in use. I use the Sanyo Eneloops in power hungry devices such as my electric toothbrush and remotes for the Nintendo Wii. It is amazing how many batteries that thing goes through. I have always cringed at the thought of tossing away spent batteries, but now feel with the Sanyo Eneloop batteries, there is no need to buy those packs of alkaline batteries. Whenever purchasing a gift that requires AA batteries, I include the Sanyo Eneloop batteries and charger.

Summary: A godsend for travelers

Comment: Unlike other reviewers, I wasn't so much interested in the batteries here. They're precharged, great, but I wasn't in much of a hurry to use them anyway. But I absolutely love the charger. I travel with a backpack most of the year, and I was not happy lugging around my previous battery charger, a heavy brick that had to be plugged into a wall socket. It was also difficult to pack, since its prongs stood out and would get bent in the crush of my bag.

But this little charger here is exactly what I need. It is featherweight and a streamlined box with nothing sticking out. It even converts between AA and AAA with the flick of a tab, something I never got in a charger before. The USB power really helps in less develoepd countries where you only get one socket for use and can't plug in multiple appliances.

This is just a magical little device, and economically priced too. I'd strongly suggest it for anyone needing a charger on the go.

Summary: great

Comment: I love that whenever I pick up my digital camera the batteries still have juice in them.

Summary: Reliable batteries

Comment: I have 20 of these and they are great. My wife's A series Canon point and shoot uses these, my SB 600 and 800s use these (flashes), and my kids' toys use these. They are wonderfully predictable as to how long they will run. Great batteries.

Summary: Fantastic Batteries

Comment: The batteries are probably the best I've ever used. They lasted for over 400 pictures on maybe a 3/4 charge, and that lasted me a week! I just went on a roadtrip and they lasted me pretty much the entire time.

Fantastic, I would definitely buy more of these batteries and recommend them to everyone.
