An urgent request...

Are Powerex batteries any good? I saw in the papers at Sitex for S$15 for 4 AAs... anyone bought these? What's the capacity like? Does Eastgear still sell them at this price?

I'm leaving this Friday and I need another 8 batteries - also want a fast charger that can charge 8 batteries at one go - preferably 1 hour charger or faster... any recommendations... must be less than S$150?

Thanks!
 

yes they are good. 2700mah. i bought the standard charger + 4 AA = 49 + 15 bucks
if u need to charge 8 at a go, they have chargers for that also, 100+
check their website
 

Have used the POWEREX 2700. Much better than the SONY IMHO. Got the MAHA MH-C401FS charger as well. The charger can be set to slow or fast charge. Can charge 1 to 4 AA or AAA. It has four independant charger, which ensure each battery is charged to the max compare to those that charge in pair.

Got both at EG. The battery is price lower if buy together with the charger. Can't remember the price but can checked from their website, price controlled.
 

hmmm... got 16 pcs of the PowerEx Batteries 2700 and i never looked back @ other batteries! :nono: they really do lasts! :thumbsup: so what are you waiting for? head down to peninsular plaza lo... ;)
 

Eneloop... hehe.. cos i dun use that often... so i prefer charged once, and throw in bag, used, depleted, then charge again...
 

Thanks for the quick replies! I'm currently using 12 GP batteries from 2100 to 2500 mAh... I like them but they are pretty expensive... hopefully the Powerex ones are cheaper... thanks! Will go down to EG @ PP today to take a look...
 

another :thumbsup: :thumbsup: from me,
they're good. much-much better than the sanyo ones.. :sticktong

I go on holidays and community trips... the latter sometimes u end up without electrical supply for some time... and u need batteries for flash + backup for my 7D (vertical grip can take 6 AAs). Plus AAs to power other stuff like torches, lanterns... also I very kiasu... so must carry extra...

DCA, please shift the thread... was urgent so I just post here cos the KM brothers sure reply one... thanks! And sorry for OT.... errr... u mod meh?:dunno:
 

I find Powerex to hold their charge pretty well too. I have a batch that was charged last month and it still has most of it's charge today.
 

changed all my batteries to powerex 2007 and it's pretty good so far. charge it with the C801. :cool:
 

Same here, trade-in mine for 16 pcs of PowerEX 2700....today, going down to EG to go for second round trade-in. :D
