evan_sears Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Hey everybody, I'm looking to go for rechargable in lieu of constantly having to throw away spent alkalines. It feels too wasteful to be throwing out 10 batteries per week- I shoot a ton, and use the SB-800. Does anyone have any experience using rechargables in this flash? Any recommendations besides getting a quantum pack? Thanks, EVan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Waller Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Go to: www.thomasdistributing.com and buy the 2700 Powerex rechargables with a Maha charger. I have used them for years and they are sensational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joseph_smith3 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Duhn, sure. 2500 or 2700s. I use Energizers in my Sb-800. Joe Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roto Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 With NiMH you're also going to have faster recycle times than with traditional AA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
