rubbish!


no point digging mine, I'll leave them buried.

LOL. Mine too.
I just don't do that well on photowalks as I used to...the scenery was sure nice though.

Anyone used these batteries?

they seem to have a decent writeup on other forums.

The Maha ones are supposed to be OK although I have stuck with Eneloops. I know the Maha smart charger is a good one

Which ones?

I use the Eneloops 2000 almost all the time for my flash. They are good in that they hold their charge well when you forget/dont have time to charge.

I have some maha powerex 2700 for my flash as well and they are MUCH faster than the eneeloops, but don't hold charge when you forget. I would suggest if you use them all the time, that the powerex are a better option than eneloops.

Speed difference? I would say that I can probably do (not on burst) 4 photos in 2 seconds, then wait 1 second with 2700 and 1 photo per 1 second then wait 1 second with the 2000. .

I cannot compare them for longetivity sorry. I don't use my flash very often. I would suggest that the most I used the fully charged powerex 2700, was shooting a formal, and I took about 300 shots. but stuffed if I remember if the batteries went flat.

I use the maha 4 battery charger for both 2700 and 2000

I use the Imedion batteries for AAA, AA & true 9.6V plus the Maha chargers - the 9000 is a great 4x cell unit and portable.. the 8-cell unit is great for mass charging.

Try here to compare prices - depending on what you are after and qty it is often cheaper to bring them in.

The Aussie Classic Muscle Rally (a fundraiser for Leukemia) passed through Whyalla on Saturday 17th November.
They spent the afternoon at the Whyalla Drag Club grounds.
Here are a couple of pics.

Nice Toaran Andrew. I had an original '74 LJ Bathurst model when I was young. One of the biggest mistakes I made was selling that car to buy a HQ V8 ute. Now my jolly's are grandkids, how times change!!!
