If you are buying 20+ AAs a week and/or looking at buying multiple sets of AA Eneloop Pros and charging stations, you might want to look at rechargeable mics with something like an 18650 built in instead. On Mon, Oct 4, 2021 at 3:57 PM Robert Bain via AF wrote: > I am have trouble post to the gr

Another rechargeable option is LiFePo4 AA batteries. They are 3V but you can get them with a "connector" that acts as a dummy battery. On Mon, Oct 4, 2021 at 4:37 PM Bill Prince wrote: > The one we have is a "MAHA MH-C800S eight cell AA/AAA quick batttery > charger" > ( > https://www.ebay.com/it

Is the 8 bay charger a Panasonic charger, or 3rd party? All I'm finding from Panasonic are the 4 port chargers. Do they make 20 or 30 slot chargers? On 10/4/2021 3:16 PM, Bill Prince wrote: We have a smart charger with slots for 8 batteries, and each battery is charged individually. It knows
