My AA energiser 2450 (I think) batteries don't hold their charge much past an hour when I'm out using them in my hope vision one on low setting. Time for some new ones, where do you get yours from?

Do a search, there was a big thread on this a few weeks ago with a link to an article comparing brands.

I have had Vapex for the last few years with no complaints & as it happens they faired top in the article from what I remember.

My cheap dumb charger was killing batteries, so went for this smart charger......

Not only looks after the batteries better but revived some of the 'dead' ones. Would recommend.

Sanyo eneloops

Word

Edit: Decent one channel per cell delta-peak (with temp monitoring) charger required. We use a La Crosse BL-700.
