AA NiMH Best Deal

The NiMH AA batteries in the handheld are now almost 6 years old, and are
starting to show their age. What's the best deal going on AA batteries these
days?

Jim,
I spotted this last night: http://www.batteryspace.com/?SSAID=97249 which
is comparable to the best deals on Ebay.

I find good deals at Sam's Club, usually 2 sets (8) for about $16.00....

One thing to keep in mind - not all NiMH AA batteries have the same
capacity. A few weeks ago after I bought the new AvMap EKP-IV (it takes six
NiMH AAs), I went shopping for batteries and a charger at Frys.

I found NiMH AA batteries there rated with capacities ranging from 1600 mAh
up to 2300 mAh. Not surprisingly, those with the higher capacities were a
bit more expensive. Since these were going to be used for aviation-related
purposes, naturally I got the most expensive ones I could.

The variety of charging options was quite dizzying - too many choices for
chargers, but I'm assuming you already have that covered.

They have good deals and lots of batteries but I hate their web site.
To much clutter and not very clear.

This place http://www.zbattery.com also has good deals and lots of
information. Their web site isn't the greatest but it is a lot better
the thomas.

I second this opinion. I have used Thomas Distributing for years and their
products and service are unbeatable. They carry the famous and top rated
Maha CF-204F Smart Charger, which in my opinion, is the best NiMH charger on
the market. Their high capacity PowerEx batteries are great for aviation
use.

Where can one find rechargeable AA Lithium batteries? Any safe way to
recharge those "non-rechargeable" Li AA batteries?
