I seem to be recharging the batteries on my clock about once a month and the ones in the remote controls about once every 3 months.I don't reccomend these batteries as they efficient nor practical as you will be recharging them over and over. I basically have to recharge the batteries every time I want to use the camera.
I was highly dissapointed. I bought these batteries a while ago as a replacement for some old no-name rechargeable batteries.
Cameras dry up these batteries extremely fast. Whereas my generic rechargeable batteries used to last a long time, these do not.
The Rayovac batteries have to be constantly recharged even when used in remote controls or clocks. The batteries don't seem to charge completely.
Thus, you will be spending more energy than you normally would.
Wanted rechargeable batteries and these seem to last forever in my heavily used DVR remote.
Still, I haven't bought a new battery in 5 years. One note, they aren't as great for long term products like smoke alarms etc., they lose some charge just sitting around.
I have a mouse that eats batteries in two days, but my rayovacs actually outlast non-rechargeables and so far have been recharged about 50 times each without issue. Great batteries for high drain needs.
You can pair these with one of those emergency cell phone chargers to get extra talk time on trips. I've used the competitors products and been far less impressed, this includes the old rechargeable alkalines and the newer versions.
These, as well as the rayovac 15 minutes c3 rechargeables really do the job for cameras and handheld electronics. I only get about 6-12 months between charges with my TV remote.
I just keeping cycling through the dozen of these I own.
These batteries, hold a charge as well as buying a new throwaway, however the charge lasts longer. I have used Sanyo, and another less expensive brand NiMH. None of them held a charge very long. I am thrilled, I just ordered another Rayovac charger and C, and D rechargeable's. It may cost me more now however it will save me more, and be good for the environment as well.
I am totally satisfied with thids product so far. Of course if the batteries run out of charge after a few charges I will be dissatisfied. I expect them to last tens of reusses if experience can be of any guideline.
