 Less than satisfactory experience July 24, 2010

I purchased the 1 hour rapid charger (actually 4 hours in "fine print") with 4 batteries plus an 8 pack. Charger heated the batteries to a point where it was too hot to touch. Green light did not come on until after 18 hours! Measured voltages of the batteries after 6 hours from charging were 1.54V, 1.65V, 1.65V, 1.89V. Stuck them in a nikon sb-900 flash -- no go. Checked that the sb-900 was not fried with Sanyo eneloops - golden -- tried again with Powergenix, no go. Tried them on an sb-800, no go. Returned the entire order. Did not want to waste time debugging the problem -- bad charger or batteries? I'm sticking with the eneloops for now. Tend to agree with NLee the Engineer's review.
 Great Batteries June 22, 2010

I have used these for my Flip Camera and in the xbox 36 and Wii Controllers and love them. They last far longer than any other rechargeable batteries I have owned and appear to extend the range of the Wii Controllers. Previously with Wii controllers, about an hour of playing in and I found range got limited. I have played with these batteries for a long time with no change in range! I was quite the skeptic when I bought these but are now fully converted. Going forward these are the batteries I will be using.

I bought these to power my Metz Flash for my Canon camera and also for the battery pack for my Canon 7D
First off these did not work at all with my Canon 7D battery pack. I kept getting an error message about the battery. For the Canon battery back I would recommend Sanyo Eneloop 8 Pack AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries. I have used them in a variety of items for over 3 years. With the Eneloops I have been very happy with how long the batteries last and overall performance.
For my flash the PowerGenix works beautifully. The refresh rate is quick (MUCH better than standard rechargeable batteries or regular batteries) and it lasts a long time.
While this says it is a 1-hour charger the first charge takes closer to 3-hours. And depending on how discharged the batteries are can take at least 1 to 2 hours on subsequent recharges.
PowerGenix NIZN rechargeable batteries with charger April 27, 2010

I haven't really had these batteries long enough to give what I would consider a through evaluation. What I have experienced so far has been great. They last a lot longer in my digital camera which is the main reason I got them. The fact that they emulate alkaline batteries (1.56V for the NIZN batteries Verses 1.25 volt for the nicad batteries)makes them work much better in other devices that I have tried them in. I hope they come out with an AAA size.

Great product. Charge last long and cycle time is faster than lithiums on my speedlight.
