Battery Source

I have found a battery source with excellent pricing and carrying all major brands and sizes. It is OnlyBatteries.com. I use their AccuPower AA NiMH cells advertised at 2900 mAh. Keep in mind that ALL brands tend to overstate their actual capacity. However I consistently get 2500-2600 mAh out of these and they hold charge as well as my eneloops. I would put these on par with Ladda 2450s from Ikea. These cells are priced at $4.89 each but quantity packs will reduce the unit cost. Shipping is fast and accurate. Good company with which to do business. Just thought you should know.

Have you used these long enough to be confident that they live long enough to be worth getting?

Do you use one of their chargers also?

Actually I use a PowerEX charger. Any good NiMH charger that measures mAh will do.
