What type of rechargables you use with the GRD

[Allakazoo]

I've been trying to find some rechargable AAAs for my GRD. The best I can find is 800mAH. Anyone using higher ones? Which brand? Thanks.

I don't bother, the off the shelf aaa's last about 70 shots. I doubt the rechargable ones give half this performance.

I highly recommend Sanyo's new ENELOOP cells, AAA 800mA. The exiting thing about ENELOOP cells is the very low late of self-discharge. After one year of storage 85% of the charge is still there. They aren't very expensive, either. More info here:

Thanks for your reply Jonathan. 70 shots is too little for me, that's why I'm looking for something that lasts a fair bit longer. Was hoping rechargables would help. I dug out a set of old GP 850mAh, but they were disappointing... How it wish it had the F10's (my other cam) stamina.

Thanks Herbert, will check these out. How many shots do these batteries normally last you?

Hi

I took my GRD to the world cup in June/July, and the only power source I had was 2 x Energizer 900mAh and 2x Duracell 1000mAh.

Flash recycle time was the most noticeable difference. Flash recycle was about 10 seconds. Took a mixture of RAW and jpg, and i could fill a 1 gig card on 1 set of batteries.
