Sorry if wrong place. I want to know if anyone can recommend a good battery system based on their experience. I have used Varta for the past 4years until now. I want to use it still BUT they are out of production. wasting my entire charging system. I need a replacement and i dont want to repeat the same mistake. Anyone have any idea? ps: i have bad experience with SANYO and GP, do they suck or i am really in a bad luck. |
i will appreciate very much your comment on my flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/mukyo/ | |

you still can use other brand charger for your Varta batteries, so whyy wasted? Sanyo Eneloop, GP recyko are not bad, can retain charge quite well. those normal Sanyo and GP high capacity >2500mAh are the one with fast discharge issue. |

I use the Sanyo Eneloop. Recycle time for my flash is quite fast too. No problems for me

haha, i am user of camellion. got a few packs. similar to eneloop and powerex. i am using maha charger. btw, fast charge will reduce the lifespan of the batt and also you wont get full charge. |

If you usig the batteries for Sony's flash, consider the battery pack, it really helps with the refresh rates and you just keep shooting... |
