Sony 2700mAh rechargeable batteries

[vivientan]

Can I use the normal Sanyo charger for Sony 2700mAh rechargeable batteries? Or must I get a dedicated one from Sony?

Where is a good place to buy rechargeable batteries at a cheap price?

i have not have any problems using different branding chargers and batteries so far...

i use a sony charger for sanyo batteries with no problems

"where to buy" and "how much" should be posted in the consumer's corner

although its not an issue to charge batteries from another brand charger.. IIRC you might want to note that older generation of chargers might not be able to fully charge your batteries to 2700mAh..

No. Its only take longer time to charge.

how long can i keep them after fully charged before they lose their juice? i heard the Sanyo Eneloops can keep for a year without losing charge, it this true also for these sony?

btw, i got them at any Challenger at member's price, 4 for $19.90.

My Eneloops can last a month before they loose their charge

The older generation chargers, before they came out with those 1-hour or 2-hour quick charger, will take about 12 hours to fully charge a set of batteries. So, these older chargers can still work on your 2700mAh batteries but take damn bloody longer comparatively.
