Selling for a couple of quid per pack, before I splash out and replace all my 'normal' NiMH lose-your-charge-in-minutes type rechargeables, I'd like to know if there's anything majorly wrong with them.
I had some triple As from cpc and quite frankly they were rubbish, ie dischard themselves. However some from Maplins and Curries seem to be very good. Maybe they have just got the build right now.

For less demanding applications I've found poundland NiMH are ok, once the = odd dud is screened out. 50p each. They don't seem to mind fast charges of = under an hour, and are lasting fine. The downsides are the capacity, 0.8Ah = for AA and 0.35Ah for AAA, and the self discharge. Fine for apps where they= 're connected to the charger when not being used, like cordless phones, som= e torches and other float charged appliances.
Not really, might give a clue as to their age, the first LSD ones I bought were the Sony and they're still going strong.
I bought a few Maplin ones and initially my camera shut-off prematurely with them, I think they came good after a few charge cycles, but I'm still wary of using those in cameras/torches where they might be used after sitting idle after a long period.
