Title: rayovac 15-minute charger + batteries
Post by: udo on January 08, 2006, 01:54:53 AM
Does anyone use the rayovac 15 minute charger? I was using the european equivalent (varta) for a recording project in the caucasus (where I was happy about a few hours of electricity a day, so I really needed to charge quick), and the technique worked great, 4 aa batteries (2000mha) in 15 minutes. But I have the feeling that the batteries are getting very weak now, after just one and a half years  - though I might have left them in the drawer to long... And the flaw is: it only works with the matching rayovac batteries

I do.  I use the Rayovac batteries in my digital camera.  Haven't noticed anything with regard to battery life that's all that out of the ordinary.  I don't think the Rayovacs are the highest quality though...they definitely don't last all that long.
