30 or so is the limit. Gets 20 or so full recharge/drain cycles before starting to taper off on holding a charge. However, that's not a bad return on investment. Overall works very well. Holds charge well.
I could have saved money by buying regular batteries for the amount of use I've gotten out of these. It's takes probably a year to get to this point. I have a whole bunch of these along with a lot of other rechargeable batteries and these ones are the worst by far. They only work for about 15 minutes now and then die.
Not money worthy. The lifetime of those batteries are so short you would need dozens and overwhelming look after for continuous recharge.
Often times it might be 3-4 weeks before I have to change some out, and at least 1/2 of the time the replacements are already dead.I have 4 Sony batteries in the mix, and as another poster has mentioned, I've also noticed that they seem to hold their charge much better. They're always charged as soon as they're taken out and then put back in a case with the other reserves. As others have said, these batteries do not hold a charge at all. I have 20~ of these that I mostly use in Wii and Xbox 360 controllers, with 6-8 to spare for when one set goes dead.
the same thing. After replacing my old Sony rechargeable batteries after 3 years of solid use, I wanted to go in another direction and bought these from a supposed battery-specialized company. and practically makes no sense carrying a spare pair as they will not work when you need them.I really recommend avoiding these and going with Sanyo Eneloops, just as I did. The only way you can use these is if you charge them right before use (8 hours). At first I thought the reason why, after charging the batteries a couple days before, the first pair was at mid charge while the spare batteries could not even turn my camera on, was due to using a Sony charger. After that I bought an Energizer charger with another four batteries.Guess what.
