Rechargeable batteries usually last 300 to 500 cycles which is when a battery is at 100%, then is drained to 0% and charged again. Even if you do not drain it completely and recharge the battery, it is still considered a cycle.
It all depends of the type of batteries and what you areusing them in.

Rechargeable batteries do wear out usually after their self life or prolonged use. Depending on how long you have had that particular battery and how many times it has been recharged determines how long they will last.
Rechargeable batteries that are not charged for a long time will still work sufficiently. Batteries that are overcharged will damage the battery.

Alkaline batteries use a different electroyte, and last five to eight times as long as long as zinc carbon cells Wet cell batteries are rechargeable, but require a charger and can suffer from the memory effect. They also can contain harmful chemicals. Dry cell batteries are non-rechargeable but often last longer than one charged wet cell.
No set answer to that, it depends on the size/capacity of the battery and what it's powering.
I purchased 4 rechargeable batteries plus battery charger July 2006. I take many photos for my eBay business and have found that in the last few weeks when I recharge the batteries, they only last for a few photos. I thought rechargeable batteries lastest more than 2 years. Can someone let me know the life of rechargeable batteries. Thank you.
No, I don't think rechargeable batteries are better than the regular batteries. I have always used the regular batteries and they have always worked very well for me. I know some people that has used rechargeable batteries and said that they don't stay charged for very long.
