Batteries Reviews

These batteries are great! They last 3 to 4 times as long as alkaline batteries in my Olympus C-730 digital camera and about twice as long as the individual AA Lithium batteries. They are pricy but you do get your money's worth. In the long run they are cheaper than buying either individual alkaline or lithium AA's. Go for it.

As a busy mother with two small kids, batteries are a constant. I always wind up findinf out at 8:00 at night that my daughters need new batteries. These las t SO long. Batteries are not cheap anymore, so it is nice to find a product that lasts and is worth the money!!

The BE300 is a very good PDA for the Price. Due to the low price, the power for the unit only lasts for 4 hours. This extra battery Pack will give you 2x the power. The battery pack fits right on the back and bottom of the BE300 so you still get the portablility. A very good product, just wish it was just a tad bit cheaper but oh well!

I bought this along with a travel charger for my car just in case, after three months, I have only used the travel charger twice because I couldn't make it home. The extended battery lasts me all day on my 568! From 7am-7pm, I've yet to make it lose it's charge. It does add a 1/4 inch to the back of the Jornada, but hey I went from a palm 505 to a Jornada, I can add a little more to make it really out do my old 505! Great Investment!

Got this for my HP C912 digital camera. Am always on the move, and learnt that feeding my digital camera conventional AA batteries is not the way to go. This set comes with the power adapter, the charger station and the Li-Ion battery. Battery lasts a LONG TIME in my camera now - lighter than 4AAs and lasts very long !!

The battery also charges quickly - in less than 3 hours. If you do editing on the camera, you can use the power adapter to power up the digital camera so that you don't need to use the batteries.

In a nutshell, this is one accessory you should not leave home without !

BTW - the power adapter is rated 100V-240V, so you can bring it with you when you travel internationally. The power adapter is lightweight, and the two-prong plug folds into the unit when not in used. A good design.

I have worked at three different schools in our school district and all three of them own this sharpener. We usually sharpen over 700 pencils at one sitting for state testing. It's super fast. It's awesome!

It's classy, compact and does a great job of sharpening pencils to a perfect point in a jiffy.

Unlike other electric sharpeners it doesn't seem to keep grinding away until your pencil is but a nub, but stops when the exact point is reached. Also, it is an even point rather than one sided. There is no necessity for you to keep turning the pencil in order to achieve an even sharpening.

I have a friend who has this timer, and they told me i must come check it out before i buy any timer . It was the smartist thing i have ever purchased it does exactly what i need it to and more, it is a real pleasure to have . thank you ,Wayne b Burton

I looked at the iGo ac/air power converter for my mac laptop as well as Belkin's version. Though the iGo suffered from fragile power plug tips, the Belkin seemed to present a slightly better value for the money than the Kensington adapter. I chose the Kensington because of the consistancy of quality found in other products I have bought from them over the years. My recent wireless trackball purchase from them was no exception. I'm religious about well-designed products that perform. The Kensington adapter has a slick design (a la iBook's white and clear plastic). The cords are heavy guage and plugs reinforced for long term wear. Adapter tips are included for both old (G3) and (G4) iBooks and Powerbooks. Each cable (3 of them) has their own matching velcro fastening tie and fit neatly into the included black bag. (all of it, about the size of a cordless phone) Plugs fit very securely in the power adapter. Yeah, it's one more thing to carry with your laptop when traveling but you can leave your Apple a/c adapter at your desk. The adapter gets a bit warm on the plane, but you know it is working and it won't compromise your laptop because of slight changes in voltage. The price seems steep ($95.) but given the quality of construction, design and durability, it is definitely worth it.

I recently discovered these batteries in a store and tried them out as they claimed they were designed for digital applications.

They dusted regular and premium AA batteries when I used them in my Canon 550EX flash. With normal batteries I get around 250 shots, but to get those I have to swap the batteries out to let them cool down after about 100 shots. With the Kodak 3x batteries, I got over 400 shots and did not have to swap them out. On top of that, they seemed to recharge the flash even faster then normal as they warmed up.

While I don't recommend them for low-continuous power devices such as clocks and flash lights, I do highly recommend them for high-energy use devices such as digital cameras and flashes.

The reason I have found from looking up the specs on the Kodak site is they are indeed designed for high-energy digital devices which consume a lot of power over a short duration, in fact the more you drain (up to a point) the more over all power they should provide.

If you only take an occasional picture once in a blue moon, I don't recommend them, but if like me you take lots in one setting, these batteries are fantastic. Unless I can't find them I don't use anything else in my camera flashes anymore.
