Hi all,

The batteries which came with my trackpad recently just ran out and I replaced them with recyko brand rechargeable batteries. However, what I noticed is that their charge seems to drain super-fast. Where previously, the energizer batteries lasted almost 2 months, my new batteries have dropped by 5% after barely half a day's use!:eek:

I know that well, being rechargeable batteries, I can simply rejuice them as necessary, but it seems quite extreme. The batteries ran fine on my other appliances like torchlights and video cameras, so I was quite surprised.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue? What kind of batteries are you all using or would recommend? :)
 
I'm using Sanyo Eneloop rechargeable batteries and I've been really pleased with them. I've only had to recharge them a couple times since getting them several months ago. They're the same batteries that I use in my Canon 430EX flash :)
