how much longer do they last in a digetal camera than regular AA batteries

Consumers Report did comparison test on AA batteries. The Energizer out performed them all. CR stated the batteries cost more but will in the long run save money. I checked all the voltages on the batteries and they all read 1.8 volts, nominal voltage is 1.5v.

All I know is that the batteries go faster if the camera's are left on. Maybe 2 days.

I have been using AA batteries that seem to last much longer than the original rechargable ones that come with unit.

I bought these before I went to Churchill CA where it was cold all the time. I had my camera on continuous shots and each battery lasted about 1 to 1 1/2 days, the same amount of time the original Canon battery lasted.

Yea with my experience you wanna go with the more expensive batteries that are made to last longer go to best buy and ask or go on google and search best batterys for digital camera theres batterys that handle better for these cameras and possibly look into rechargeable batteries

In very simple terms - it will last longer. They are out performing my orginal gopro batteries, so am very happy with them.

I have taken one fully charged battery on day trips, taking pictures the whole time. I always bring a back-up (fully charged) battery in my camera bag, and have yet to need it! So the exact life of the charge I can't say, but they seem to last very long to me. Hope this helps a little.

02/11/2014 - I use Eveready, AA Lithium batteries with mine. These are the silver colored batteries. Regular AA batteries will drain in a matter of a day of normal use. Lithium retains the 1.5 VDC to the very end, then just die. Regular AA batteries will slowly lose power, dropping to a lower voltage and eventually will not power the camera correctly. Lithium will last you a long time, of course depending upon your usage. I would seriously say to have new, fresh Lithium's in the camera, if you are going to a function or event where you plan to shoot a lot of pictures, and have at least an additional 4 pack of Lithium's in your camera bag or your pocket. You may or may not need them, but it is better to have them and not need them, than to need them and not have them.

I purchased a couple back-up batteries online just in case, since I would be in remote areas while shooting. A fully charged battery is good for about 260 min. I shot about 200 photos a day, and about 30 min of movies without ever having to go to a back-up battery. I thought battery life was very good. Best to stick with brand names, or reliable sources though when purchasing back-ups, as I did end up with 1 battery that would not take a full charge.

AA batteries. Last about a month in the kitchen due to lots of traffic and sensitive lotion sensor...but last a long time in the spare bathroom!! Excellent!

Yes, I have had my camera using this battery for I think 5-7yrs and my original batteries were not holding their charge, so before I bought a new camera I decided to see if the batteries were the problem ,so I bought 2 new ones (I always have a spare) and charged them up and I think that was the problem, so I guess my point is that, the batteries last 5-7yrs, not a bad investment

I've had pretty good success with these batteries. I put a fully-charged battery in my camera before my niece's wedding last Saturday & started taking pictures at the church at 1:30. I took several hundred pictures (don't know the exact count on this battery) and didn't have to change the battery until about 7:30 that evening. I always keep a fully-charged backup in my bag & the second one got me thru the rest of the night, with charge to spare. Hope that helps!

How long do the batteries last? I love my Lithium rechargables on my Kodak becasue I have NEVER ran out of batteries. My mother has also purchased digital cameras that use 4 AAs and is also having to recharge them. It drives me crazy!!!!!!!!! Do you generally carry around extra batteries? I guess I also leave my camera plugged in, so it is always fully charged and ready to go. I would like to try and Olympus but the 4 AA batteries is really holding me back!Please help!

Yes, these are excellent batteries for a camera. We found they last 2-4 times longer than alkalines and then you just recharge them for the next use.

I cant tell you time. I can tell you I have never had to change a battery even when shooting on a long day of filming. They last as long as the original or better.

Lasts very little. In my 8Gb card I believe I should be able to fit about 74min of HD movie in MP4, but the battery won`t last anywhere near that. I still have to do some further testings, but my guess is that it lasts about 25~35 minutes. Since I haven`t done any tests with the camera only shooting movies, I am not sure about these values, it`s just a rough guess. Anyway, I find that the biggest problem is that it only warns you that the battery is about to end when it is already over, so you don`t get any extra seconds once the battery sign starts blinking (missed some great shots because of that). I carry two batteries with me and I am buying a third one, simply because this camera deserves it (video quality is superb and photo quality is good), I am overall happy with the camera. You just have to adapt yourself to change the batteries more frequently.

Yes unfortunately. They last a while but you will have to find these at the store or order. Can't use AA or AAA that most of us have lying around. I take my batteries out when camera not in use.
