A word about our Chargers & Batteries selection...

Because batteries are so much a part of our lives we often take them for granted. Some may say they are all the same. This is not true.

We have looked at pretty well all the leading brands of battery and charger and one name stands out - Ansmann. This German company has built a reputation for superior product performance and quality. Their products are continuously winning top positions in independent consumer tests across Europe. We've also found that Ansmann products are quite modest in their performance claims, only to show their outstanding class when put to serious use. Many of their product reviews bear this out.

Of course, you will have no trouble finding lower cost chargers and batteries. But, as ever, you get what you pay for. Ansmann chargers and batteries are premium quality products, so their kit delivers better performance, reliability and longevity. For only a little more money you get much more value. That is why we offer only Ansmann batteries and chargers here at Solid State Sound.

RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES

ANSMANN AA RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES
Standard & High Capacity NiMH Rechargeable AA Cells

[ Back to Top ]

 

We offer two grades of rechargeable NiMH AA battery: our Standard grade is 2100mAh and our Professional grade is 2850mAh. The 'mAh' tag means milliampere-hour and so the Standard grade battery delivers 2100 milliamperes per hour and the Professional delivers 2850. The higher the number, the longer the battery will last on a single recharge. If budget is an issue and you're using one of our lower cost solid state recorders for everyday periods of recording then our Standard grade batteries are fine. You should choose our Professional grade cells in our medium to premium cost recorders, and for when you need to get as much recording time out of a recharge as possible.
