Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Powerex AA 2700mAh Rechargeable NiMH Batteries w/holder- 4 Batteries Per Pack
Customer Review: They fail after months of use
Summary: 2 Stars
Pros: Work great for a few months
Cons: Don't hold a charge after a few months of use
The Bottom Line: Don't waste your money or the environment on these batteries. You think you'll save money with rechargeables, but you'll dispose of Powerex batteries after a few months.
Although touted as having the power necessary to run digital cameras, these 2700 mAh batteries will last you less than a year. Unlike the current crop of batteries designed to hold charges for extended periods, these batteries won't stay charged in an unused digital camera for more than a day after a few months of use.
Testing conditions for these were meant to be ideal- the batteries were kept in a Powerex AA battery charger specifically designed to maintain charge and condition the batteries. Despite this, after several months of very light use, batteries taken fully charged out of the charger and put into a camera would hold a charge for about 2 days before burning out.
Under the exact same conditions, my Eneloop batteries would hold a charge for many days, maybe weeks. Initially the Powerex batteries could hold a charge for several weeks, but this capacity was quickly lost after about 9 months. This is not a problem with the camera- the Eneloops stay fine and aren't drained. It's Powerex batteries- they are not built to last.
Therefore if you're looking for long-term savings on AA batteries by using NiMH rechargeables, stay away from these Powerex.
On the other hand, when I notified Maha about this problem, they immediately sent 4 replacement batteries of their Imedion brand, which have been working fine for 4 months now. They did not ask for a receipt, so I suspect they knew there was a product problem- however, they seem to stand by their company reputation and they responded immediately to my email, so Maha seems a good company with which to deal.
