Short AA Battery Life in K-r


thank guys again.

eneloop was really disappointment. I got them from Challengers.. Now, I was trying GP rechargeable now. the 1st two rounds chargings did not bring much improvement (slightly better than eneloop). And the battery indicator went to red quite fast. I had to turned it off for a moment in order to get more power..(at least, it could be yellow when I turned it on.)

I did not use live view and most of the time, no flash


Get Maha PowerEx NiMHs or the imedions (similar to Eneloops) and the Maha MH-C401FS charger. They can charge any brand batteries and are individual charging too.
 

What charger are you using?

Suggest you get one of these models, Maha Powerex makes excellent NiMH chargers, and is a worthy investment if you don't already use a good charger.

They come with Imedions or Maha 2700. Can check out the Eastgear website. Cheers.

Yes, use MAHA charger. I have the MAHA MH-C401FS CHARGER. Got it when East Gear still at Penisula 2nd floor donkey years ago.
Recommended to use Slow charging, discover battery will last longer.
