Nice product - questionable reliability Aug 25, 2010
I am not an electrical engineer and can't even wire a light switch or lamp. I bought the charger and additional batteries for a RC (Radio Control) boat application. They feel lighter than more popular batteries which is fine. After charging them over night, I found I got a couple hours of use before they ran down. The next several times, I used them, they gave me about 15 minutes of use. Each time, I would re-charge them and they would work about 15 minutes and be done. Upon checking them with a charger, they would show charged. After consulting with some of my boat friends and through the process of elimination, we determined that two of the batteries were dead thus causing the rest to run down prematurely. Disappointed, I went to a well known battery store and bought their equivalent for about the same price, charged them and found that I get about 6-7 hours boating time (sail) with two hours recharge time consistently. Will I return these? No. I'll keep them as back up but I can't trust them when I am in competition and a dead battery will cost you the race or a collision with another boat. I don't think this is the right application for this battery. In a flashlight? Sure - why not?
 New Battery Aug 01, 2010
I am using the new technology in a high current drain application and the batteries work very well. I you need batteries to use for the power to drive a motor this is a great choice.

 Don't Waste Your Money Jun 30, 2010
Don't be fooled into buying these batteries for a newer digital camera. All new digital cameras that use AA batteries are designed for 1.2V NiMh batteries. PowerGenix has manipulated the capacity value to trick you into thinking that these are high capacity batteries. These AA batteries are rated at 2500mWH, not mAH. That means that if you convert that to mAH, it equals only 1563mAH, which is half the capacity of the best NiMH. Even low self-discharge NiMH batteries, such as Eneloop, with modest capacities of 2000 to 2400mAH are higher than these. If you convert the highest capacity 3100mAH NiMH AA battery specs to match these NiZn ones, you get a whopping 3720mWH. That's 38% higher capacity which translates to more pictures. Add in the fact that these batteries can't be charged in 15 minutes like NiMH batteris can and you can see they aren't worth the money. If you need the extra voltage, Rechargeable Alkaline batteries may be a better alternative because they offer 25% more capacity than NiZn batteries.
So, unless you have a flashlight or some old device that was made before NiMH batteries became common, it just doesn't make any sense to buy these batteries. They are all smoke and mirrors.

Awesome batteries, odd charger Jun 24, 2010
I wrote a review here stating that the charger I got had burned out after only one use. I ordered a replacement. When it arrived, I realized that the first charger had probably not burned out, but rather that I had positioned the batteries incorrectly. With the first charger, I was charging only two batteries and I put them both together on one side of the charger. It turns out that I should have placed them both in the middle or one each side, as indicated by the instructions. Since this is the only battery charger I know of with such a configuration, I didn't even think to check this with the first charger. Too bad I threw it out! So, read the charger instructions! The batteries are great, though. My digital camera used to run out of juice nearly every time I used it. I wasted a lot of money on different kinds of rechargeables and nothing helped. Until now... My first set of NiZn batteries lasted for a month or more, with heavy use of the camera. Incredible! Hopefully, some other companies will jump on the band wagon and make some better chargers for these.

Application of the batteries and charger Apr 25, 2010
One of the things that has been an issue with NiMh or NiCd batteries of the past is low voltage when compared to Alkaline batteries. I have used the NiZn 1.6 volt batteries in my digital Cannon camera, a CD player, and a LED flashlight; they performed well in each applications.
The manufacture's rating of 2500Mwh of capacity is unusual, but it actually may be more to the point as many modern electronic devices use less amperage draw when higher voltage is available. I also was concerned about voltage decay during the discharge cycle, but was pleasantly surprised to discover that until 80% of the battery's discharge, voltage was 1.5 or higher. The voltage then declined to 1.2 by 90% followed quickly to below 1.0 volt.
Overall I give this product four stars and maybe should be five stars.
