I've switched over to AA rechargables entirely.

2 amp types last 200 to 500 precent lomger than non-rechargable alkalines.



What do you mean by "last 200 to 500 percent longer"? Rechargeable alkalines
have about half the amp-hour capacity of regular alkalines. Do you mean
their entire service life is 2 to 5 times longer? If so, you should be
getting much more life out of them than that.

I use them for a few things, but the low amp-hour capacity is a problem for
some applications.

Practice will improve snipping skills, Ed.


My rechargables are all rated at 2200 mah or better.

NON-Rechargables alkalines are rated 400 to 800 mah.
