#15 these for clocks and remotes? Not! They will go flat in no time. Eneloops will work for that. Spend a fortune? When you see how long these last you will realize cheap doesn't mean a bargain..

Rechargeable batteries vary so much in quality that I'd stick with well known brands only.

As #13 mentioned the LaCross charger is great.
That's exactly what I use for my Energizer and Sanyo Enelope NiMH batteries. About 1 out of every 10 mis-discharges/mis-charges, so I can only imaging how bad it is when people don't discharge.

Great posts. Wish I had read them before I bought a bunch of crap off Ebay. Half of the two dozen batteries (2600 mAh advertised) will not hold a charge at all. Even my wireless thermometer bleeds them dry in a day...I hate Ebay. And Chinese junk. Oh, and when waiters squat down next to the table like we're best friends already. I really hate that.

Not true at all, especially not with NiMH>

NiCd, not NiMH have phantom charge level issues. If you find NiMH have this problem you are not using a properly working charger - any typical $15 Delta-V charger does not have this problem.

No, NiCD has more phantom issues than NiMH, but NiMH still has them. I find that 1 out of 10 NiMH batteries I have (all Energizer and Sanyo Enelope) will charge to sub-2,000mAh if I don't fully discharge.

That might be fine for most electronics using 1A or less. But my Pentax K100D can suck up to 2A, and it just doesn't cut it.

It is proven fact.

In short, what I wrote was correct and industry proven, go argue with the entire world because any google search will prove it.

The one exception is your particular camera. If it is especially strange about battery power, we can ignore it's response except for users who have it, in which case data about it is very valuable.

I was not taking issue with any technical facts.
I was taking major issue with the term "senseless."
Context is everything.
