[QUOTE="Andy S., post: 5627240, member: 131"] This may sound crazy, but I have yet to find a [U]rechargeable[/U] AA battery that works worth a darn during the extreme heat in the summer. I currently use approximately 72 Eneloop 2000 mah batteries in standard and cellular cameras, but the extreme heat zaps them [U][B]A LOT[/B][/U] faster than colder temps. I currently only use them in cameras that are easier to access so I can change them out, recharge, etc in a timely manner. Rechargeables are solid performers during fall/winter months (Oct-Mar), but I only get 25-35 days during peak summer heat and humidity. Generally speaking, I now use Duracell coppertops (alkaline) during warmer months (May-Sep) and get 10-14 weeks out of a set, and lithium and rechargeables during cooler/colder months (Oct-Apr). Of course, all of this is contingent on your setup and camera settings. Salt lick in summer with camera settings on 5 shot burst and no delay in a high density deer population area will eat batteries faster than you can replace them. [/QUOTE]
