|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Stock up on NIMH batteries Doug Holleman, Photographer Temple | TX | USA | Posted: 5:47 PM on 08.09.10 ->> Walgreen's has a sale on batteries right now, and Energizer AA NIMH 4-packs are $7.99. SWEET! I've always had good luck with these. The sale also applies to AAA and other batteries. They had two different packages of Energizer 4-pack NIMH batteries. One is labeled as 2300 mAh at the top of the battery, and the other is labeled 2450 mAh, but the number below the bar code was identical on both, so I think it's the same battery with an updated look. Just popped in a set of the 2300s in a flash right out of the package and it powered right up. I love the way these newer batteries hold a charge on the shelf.  This post is:  Informative (3) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Looking towards the back I found packages that allowed you to get a free $10 iTunes gift card when buying three packages with the code on them. Not a bad deal at all! Of course, I have to wait 2-3 weeks for the iTunes code......  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I've used the 2450 batteries for some time now and always had good luck with them. I have a bunch of sets of Duracell 2000 batteries as well and they have done very well for me as well. The newer "precharged" batteries have worked way better for me than the older versions that weren't "precharged". But I have to give Duracell props because I bought one of their older sets of 2500 batteries and they wouldn't take a charge (on a Duracell charger & they were brand new in an unopened pkg). I emailed Duracell to state my peace (nicely) about it and they sent me coupons for 4 new packs of batteries. Can't complain about that. :-D  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
