Hello,
Anyone happy with a particular brand of NiMH batteries? I use
mine with portable shortwave radios.
Thank you,
Mike McM.


I'm running Sanyo "eneloop" in my Uniden TT 4/ 396T. a slow charge
from my MAHA C808, bout 35 to 45 min. i get over 10 hours. these
are 2K mAh, NiMH. under $10.00 for pack of 4. the cool thing is
they hold their change, un used on the shelf a long time. so, in
the long run, you get more for your money. i have never had any
rechargeable last over 7 hours in the HH scanners. good luck.

Ditto on ENELOOP. That is all I buy these days for rechargeable. I
don't recall seeing them that cheap though.


Miso, it's one of those local big box hardware type places. like
Lowes, but local. great rechargeable s.
