No set answer to that, it depends on the size/capacity of the battery and what it's powering.

They last until they run out of power. Then you have to recharge them!


What is the life of a NiMH AAA Batteries?

A set of NiMH AAA batteries can last roughly a month on a full charge if they are not being used at all and are simply allowed to sit around. In devices such as cameras and small pda's where rechargeable batteries are best used, the batteries can last nearly as long as normal alkaline batteries on a full charge. Exact times depend on the capacities of the NiMH batteries. A charge lasts long enough for a camera to be used normally for several days and hundreds of shots. As long as the NiMH batteries are not allowed to be idle and self-discharge, the life of a single charge is almost as long as a full alkaline battery. The life of the battery itself can easily be several years. NiMH batteries don't need much maintaining and can last for hundreds of charge cycles.

Why do you prefer NiMH batteries?

There are several advantages of NiMH batteries compared to ordinary alkaline batteries: 1. They can be recharged hundreds of time. So a single NiMH battery can literally replace hundreds of alkaline batteries over its lifetime. This saves money, results in fewer batteries being discarded, and uses fewer resources. 2. The voltage of NiMH batteries is relatively constant with use. The voltage of alkaline batteries decreases as the battery is used. For example a flashlight dims with use when using alkalines. But with NiMH batteries, it will stay bright until the batteries are exhausted. 3. Due to the low internal resistance of NiMH batteries, the voltage does not drop nearly as much under a load as alkaline batteries. 4. Also because of the low internal resistance, the capacity of a NiMH battery does not drop very much under heavy loads. This is why you can typically get many more shots with a digital camera if you use NiMH batteries rather than alkaline batteries. 5. NiMH batteries can deliver a much heavier current. Some devices, such as high power flashlights, cannot run (or cannot run for long) on alkaline batteries (at least on the highest settings). NiMH batteries are required to make the most of these devices. 6. Alkaline batteries may leak when they get old and/or are discharged too quickly. This can destroy whatever device they are used in.


What is the metal in NIMH batteries?

Nickel nimh stands for "NIckel Metal Hydride"


Your camera insists to use nimh AA batteries can you use nicd batteries?

yes. NiMH batteries and chargers are easier to come by though. Alot of times, the mAh will be higher in the NiMH batteries as well...so there is really no point to using NiCD unless you'd prefer it.


Do quickcharge household battery chargers damage or shorten the life of rechargeable batteries as opposed to slow or regular chargers?

Not significantly. So long as it is done using a properly designed smart charger, most NiMH batteries can be recharged in about an hour without any damage or significant reduction in their life. However, NiMH batteries must only be rapid charged with a charger specifically designed for charging NiMH batteries. Chargers designed to rapidly charge NiCd batteries can overcharge NiMH batteries. While it may be true that rapid charging NiMH batteries can reduce battery life by a small amount (probably less than 10%), this should be more than offset by the inconvenience of always slow charging batteries.
