CHARGED!!!
I use duracels only because of the massive power they throw out. No
rechargable, not even alkalines put out duracel power. I don't want to
cause a fuss, but I have tested battery runtime and power and duracel
beat everything. I probably got those 5v readings because of the power a
duracel puts out. Rechargables only run at 1.2 volts, not 1.5 like a
high power alkaline. That low recharable power may be going low enough
for the drop out voltage to kick in. That is probably why you have a low
current.
I still agree with the data though, switch to the National VR.
Also, duracells are great with the SPinTerface port.
No, I am in no way affiliated with the Duracel Corporation (=
