Rayovac NM715-8 Rechargeable NiMH AA Batteries, 8-Count Package Reviews

• mAh Rating

  
  By A3E1JFNVMA8ZS7 on 2005-12-13
  The Rayovac site identifies these batteries as 1800 mAh. These batteries will outperform alkaline (disposable) batteries by about 300% in high-drain electronics.
  
  However, you can get 2500 mAh (that's about a 38% improvement over these 1800mAh) NiMH rechargable batteries for about the same price.
  
  

• Reliable battery at a cheaper price

  
  By A3AKH5WYJFW0F0 on 2006-01-17
  I primarily tried this battery over other name brand competitors as it is generally $1-2 cheaper per 4 AA batteries. I have used the batteries for about 6 months and found that the AA batteries hold a full charge with each use and recharging. I primarily use the batteries in my portable CD player and wireless video game controllers. I find I generally get about 35-40 hours of play time for my CD player, and about 150 hours of play time for my wireless videogame controller.

  So far I can say nothing but good things about these batteries. They where purchased for my digital camera and work great with it. I am able to charge them overnight and they work for the rest of the week. I can tell you this much the batteries lasted me taking one to two pictures of each float in the Rose Bowl Parade, with the display screen off. Now that's allot of pictures.
  
  

• 2000 mAh

  
  By A1JNH85E7JD1TU on 2006-03-29
  I was worried about what the mAh of these batteries would be (higher will last longer). I received them today and they are 2000mAh, not 1800 as listed on their site. Hope this helps yall, since Amazon does not list the mAh.
  
  

• It does not last long!!!

  
  By AN1JOSB4X43DP on 2006-05-31
  I recieved Rayovac NM715-8 2000mAh, not Rayovac NM715-8 1800mAh.
  Rayovac claims this battery lasts 3X longer than standard alkaline battery, but in fact it does not. Two of this fully charged batteries died after 2.5 hrs when I used them for my Garmin I3 while two of Duracell alkaline batteries gave me almost 6 hrs. I recharged the two batteries over night and tried again, I got the same result. I would not recomment this product to anyone!
  
  
• Well worth your $

  They last a long time. I bought them for my kids Leapsters and they're great. My son who's 2 1/2 plays his Leapster all the time and I only charge them once a week.
  
  
• rechargeable battery
  By ASXDXTZH59OZY on 2006-07-05
  A nice deal on Nickel-metal hydride battery. they have much more power storage than alkaline battery and 1.2 voltage is acceptable in most devices. Combined with FREE shipping of Amazon orders made this a nice item.
  
  
• great price for rechargables!
  By A27F1N27M1X0NM on 2005-10-23
  I needed a lot of rechargable batteries for the protable cb radios I recently bought and this is a very good deal for the price.

  The batteries were packed well and received quickly.
  
  These are great to use on baby toys (as well as your big kid toys)... just buy an extra set so you can always have a set charging while the other is in the toy.
  
  The only reason I mention that is because the batteries do run down kind of quickly, and take up to 8 hours to fully charge.
  
  But I'm not complaining... while there is an initial investment, think of the money you'll save on buying new batteries all the time. And you'll be doing a small part for the environment by not throwing out batteries all the time.
  
  
• 2500 mAh
  By on 2006-10-18
  I bought the 8 pack of these batteries and they've worked without any problems. I don't have other 2500 mAh batteries to compare but these seem to last much longer than my other set of name brand NiMH batteries (which are only 2000 mAh).
  
  
• great batteries
  By A2FG7EO7TRRT2I on 2007-01-02
  pretty much I bought a charger for these batteries and ended up getting some batteries as well. overall they last long and the charger I have has a fast recharge time.
  
  
• saves Lots Of $$$$
  By AY7GNA4VBNK7F on 2007-01-03
  If you have kids you need to look into rechargable batteries, they save LOTS of money in the long run & are far better for the environment, etc. then the disposables. These would have received a 5 star rating but the fact they make them in Communist China now knocks them down a couple of notches in my book!
  
  
• Actually 2500mAh?
  By A2588TZPXP4MBK on 2007-01-10
  Ordered these last week - the product page said only 1800mAh but the price was good. The ones I received are marked 2500mAh though, so all the better.
  
  
• Wonderful Batteries
  By A36ZUSMLA2KJK2 on 2007-01-11
  I ordered these along with my rayovac battery rehcarger, They perform very well and are more affordable than other brands and they perform just as good.
  
  
• essential for those frequently used electronics
  By A7W4T3F2X31V2 on 2007-01-12
  these items arrived on time and as described. Rayovac rechargeabe batteries in the AA and AAA sizes have always worked great for me. They keep their first charge even longer than regular batteries so they sometimes outlast them before even needing a recharge. I wish the larger size rayovac rechargeables were as good performers as the AA and AAA. Don't forget to order the rayovac multi-size battery recharger
  
  
• Average batteries
  By AFFVUZEGP1FDQ on 2007-11-15
  I bought these batteries a while ago as a replacement for some old no-name rechargeable batteries. I was highly dissapointed. Whereas my generic rechargeable batteries used to last a long time, these do not. The Rayovac batteries have to be constantly recharged even when used in remote controls or clocks. Cameras dry up these batteries extremely fast. I basically have to recharge the batteries every time I want to use the camera. The batteries don't seem to charge completely. I seem to be recharging the batteries on my clock about once a month and the ones in the remote controls about once every 3 months.
  I don't reccomend these batteries as they efficient nor practical as you will be recharging them over and over. Thus, you will be spending more energy than you normally would.

• 2500 mAh
  By A29T7KHOT4RYAL on 2007-02-13
  I can confirm, I ordered from this page and just received them in the mail today, and the batteries I received are 2500 mAh.

  By A38I5NGXEF6LBD on 2007-02-14
  I was drawn by the price and the b=name- Rayovac. Should have paid more attention to the Mah rating. They just don't compare in holding capacity or long lasting, ready when you are abilities with stronger, (slightly) more expensive batteries. At $2 apiece they really aren't much cheaper than you can find shopping around for 2500 Mah AAs. Like Duracell or Sony. In my camera the Rayovac dropped from full to 2/3 full (on camera gauge) after a few shots. Others would show full for 30. They work, but takes at least 3 to equal 2 good batteries. Won't buy again.
  
  
• 2500mAh here
  By AS2OWHLJE8ROD on 2007-03-22
  For what it's worth, I also received NiMH 2500mAh batteries. They hold a charge very well and are working great in my Wii controller.
