			Ok my g/f got a digital camera for xmas and the thing sucks batteries like non other.. of course im sure most of these deivices do. So for valentines day.. one of things i was going to get her was some good rechargable batteries and a charger.. does this one look like a good one? Battery Charger... It comes with 4 1850 mAh NiMH AA batterieies with it... IF im not mistaken those are the highest rated AA batteries. The only downside I see is that it takes all night to charge batteries.. but thats not to much of a concern.

			I got my digital camera at Ritz camera and they sold me a recharagable battery pack but it can charge 4 batteries instead of two for the same price and it too is an energizer. Look around the same one but with 4 slots.

			My Duracells take only about 4 hours to fully charge.

			This may be a bit more expensive, but the quick 30 min. charging is nice. I have this one and it works great. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id...73&ty... They also have some 15 minute chargers, but as far as i know, they use proprietary battaries, not regular NIMH.

			Yeah i also looked at that 30 minute one. I was deciding if there would be a need to charge the batteries that quickly... Are the batteries that come with it also 1850 NiMH?

			i think the highest is 2100 with the nimhs there was some site that was all about digital cameras and batteries recomendations i'll find it http://www.steves-digicams.com/digi_access....html...

			Any battery can be fast charged - you just need the right charger. Fast charging does lower the life span of the batteries however, so if overnight isn't a problem, don't try to get a faster charger.

			2100 mA is the current max.. I use 2000 mA ones in my canon a200, and they last through 70-100 pics with flash easily.
