Sanyo Ni-MH 2500AA Battery!

[locksley]

I have changed mine today
Good Service :thumbsup:

I bought the Sanyo quick charger with LED indicator. But the 2 Sanyo 2500 batteries gives me the flashing LED (which means bad battery). Is this the same problem as you guys? Can I also change them or how do I know whether is it the battery or the charger (the charger can charge properly my 2 AAA 900 batteries). But for 2 batteries and have to go down to Orchard during my working hour is bad experience!

which batch model is working perfectly?

So is it safe to buy Sanyo 2500 "new" Now? Or buy and go check and will likely need to change!

Thanks

Usually when you first buy and use it, it doesn't show any sign or problem, only after some extensive usage and if you notice the batteries life have been much shorter, and the charge don't retain for more than 1 week or 2 (in worse case senario, the charge wrong last more than 2 days) then you can almost confirm you got the problematic batteries.

But it seem like not all 2500mA battery got this problem though.

So if I were to buy now, will they or will they not be problematic ones?

if those that are in the shelf are still having problem, then I think we can sue Sanyo for selling faulty products !

my set is also having similar problem now...

You want to spend thousands of dollars on 10+ dollars of products? Sanyo is already exchanging them, and that is almost the same as what you would be getting if you had sued successfully.

how about those who bought the product, and did not come into CS ?

they will never know they got a faulty product!
u get what I mean?

 

[vince123123]

Well, then go ahead and sue, let us know the result ok?

Sanyo never admit publicly nor put up and official announcement that their batteries are faulty. So, buy and use at your own risk!

Any other alternatives besides Sanyo?

Thanks to CS - now maybe I can get my batteries replaced. Was very annoyed at how fast they lost power after charging. Even my 2100mah lasted a lot longer.

Yes. I just got mine changed yesterday. They will check the batteries first to determine if they are really bad.

Call them first to arrange appointment.

Some tips given by Sanyo staff to test your batt before can make claim to them.
* Charged your 2500 batt fully.
* Don't use for 2 days
* Insert in to your cam
* If you can see "batt indicator" half appear immediately
* than your batt is FAULTY

You need to send to sales@sanyo-energy.com.sg to make quiries.
Print their reply email and bring it when you go there to get replacement.
