Hi Dave,

I've found that the high capacity NiMH batteries loose their charge quite quickly, but the lower capacity ones hold their charge for longer and after 4 weeks a set of 600mAh batteries will out perform the 2100 set.

I have some 1700mAh batteries which seem to hold their charge as well as the 600mAh ones though I haven't managed to do any documentable tests yet.

Different brands vary as well.

Apologizes if this has been discussed.

How long should i expect rechargable AA's to last in my camera bag.

I had a set in my istD for a while,maybe 3-4 weeks,something around there. I 
shot a card
during Thanksgiving and i had to replace. The back up supply lasted 4 pictures. Luckily i carry a set of Lith's and had to
use them.

So how long should i allow rechargables that are not working to sit.
