AA Rechargeable Batteries

An AA rechargeable battery is a rechargeable battery in the pencil battery size; the models in this category are nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries with the HR6 code and a rated voltage of 1.2 V. It is used in devices that drain pencil batteries quickly, such as camera flashes, game controllers, wireless keyboards and mice, flashlights, handheld radios and toys. The 2100 mAh and 2600 mAh models of the Varta Recharge Accu Power series are sold in packs of 2. Choose the capacity according to the device's current consumption and the usage time you want between two charges, and the number of packs according to the number of batteries the device uses at the same time; make sure your charger supports AA size NiMH batteries. Batteries that will work together in the same device being of the same capacity and the same state of charge ensures they discharge evenly. An AA rechargeable battery is not exactly the same as an alkaline pencil battery of the same size: its rated voltage is 1.2 V instead of 1.5 V, so the battery recommendation in the device manual should be checked.
