I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.

Default What's in a D Battery?

Perhaps just a AA battery is all...

Thats bad I take it now you have to be a battery enthusiast rather than just buy one as we can no longer trust companys.

I wondered why the Energizer rechargeables in our camera never lasted worth a damn. I guess I have my answer.

Thanks for a pretty good and interesting read. So now we start doing battery reviews! Yeah, that and sell any stock owned in whoever makes Energizer and screw that damn bunny too!

great story!!! I always wondered the same across multiple major company's rechargables.... now we know.
Even the Radio Shack D rechargables are heavy...

I am looking into the site they suggested:
They have a 11,000 mAh D battery compared to the 2500 enegizer.







Thanks HL and Corsair!

By the way, it's quite the same for Duracell. Don't be surprised they don't last at all in your camera, they're low power just like the Energizer ones. :/ If you check their batteries that are specifically targeted at electronics by those companies they have a little higher power rating but at a ridiculous prize.

My Duracell NiMH AAs last ages in my S3, full charged they take easily 500 or more pictures. Enough to fill a 2GB memory card

My AA's are from an offbrand company and are 2000mAh. Not bad, considering I got 4 of them and the charger for 9.95 as opposed to 20-24.99 for the top name brand of the same caliber. My digital camera hates them though, for reasons I can't understand.
