Hi guys, me noob. Is 2550mah too much or ok?
Is 2000 mah too low? Thanks

eneloop pro?

there's isnt too much when come to mAh. its the holding capacity.. the more you the bigger size it will be. so on the same size its best to grab the highest capacity. But there are some cons on this where some of the higher capacity battery would have short cycle life compare to smaller capacity battery...

i'm still waiting for 2.6b mah battery.. are u with me

Yeah i saw that bigger capacity has short life cycle....
Was breaking my head..... So u are saying that 2000 is sufficient ? Thanks

That is special edition. Not evry one can get.

as said above, go for bigger, you dont want battery exhausting half way through a shot. mine eneloop pro 2550 processing from lazada

I'm still using the very first gen Sanyo Eneloop rechargeable battery with 2000MAH, initial for SB700, now using them in i40. So far so good. Per charge can last me for at least few sessions of event. But then if you worry, I suggest you get 2 sets of batteries, then you can swap them in case they ran out of power during critical time.

Hey thanks. Will check it out...

Per charga can last few sessions ? Wow! Around how many clicks per session do u click.

remember use code:

SEPTOP30A

SEPTNP30A

I really dnt know about these codes. I hv purchased frm lazada once, ddnt know of codes.

Actually this code is for discount is it ? I copied n pated your code in lazada, but nothing for eneloop.

Tq hightech, now i know there is a code system, but where do u get the codes?

Sorry ah! Unker real noob

example this:

http://www.lazada.com.my/panasonic-eneloop...l-11549988.html

after finish key in address and credit card number and press review, look for place to apply coupon.. key in coupon and -Rm20 based on the above coupon

so 73 - 20 = 53.00 for 4 pcs eneloop pro AA

Standard eneloop is fine, make sure you get the ones made from Japan and not China

Oh ok. Thank you, thank you.
Really appreciate ur guide on that.

So the code is only for the pro AA is it or can i use it for e 2000 mah as well. I thought about it- am noob, goin to be simply clicking a million times in the procees of learning, so thought that the 200 with much higher cycles would be suitable for me..

code works on items without bestseller icon. refer to item description whether can use code or not

2000mAh last me average5-6k shots (on HVL-F60M)

recently change to 2400mAh, last up to 8-9k shots now(3 and half session of wedding)....

cycle time depend u firing full power then its a big deal,... my shooting method is to reduce power as much possible, hence better cycle and batt life, reduce risk of miss-shot during blank cycle...

5-6k per charge on 2000mah is vey good i guess... i tried with alkaline about 600 shots already begin to show slow cycle...

thanks for e info. Think will opt for 2000mah since i would be clicking aimlessly, hence the longer life of the battery would be useful to me.

Yeah thinking of standard.

really depend, coz if you are firing full power from a gn60 flash, probably around 300 times and it depletes.... but if you manage the firing power to fire at 1/64-1/32, then you can easily hit 4000-5000 shots

its about how you manage the setting and sufficient to to light up your image. another advise is... if you add those toiletbowl or demb diffusor or stofen cap... those light modifier actually slows down another 1 or 2 stop of light, making less efficient mileage from you battery

Ok...i hv to learn about this proper setting if e flash...
True, the diffusers logically do cut down light.

Thanks for e tips, appreciate it.

Just another query.... the advert says 2000mah, but down below in description it says 1900mah, saw this in a few ads.

So these are considered as 2000mah or 1900mah.
Thanks.http://www.lazada.com.my/panasonic-eneloop...t-11344378.html

Look at package. Don't jump into conclusion. Clearly printed on the package it's 1900 mAh

Actually i meant this link. Package says 2000mah.. but below its 1900mah.http://www.lazada.com.my/panasonic-eneloop...an-9802745.html

Anyway thanks. Now i know that there are 1900mah and 2000mah. Need to look carefully.

Not saying that there's 2000 mAh and 1900 mAh. It could be older packaging. Fully charged would be up to 2000 mAh while minimum fully charge battery would be at 1900 mAh.

http://www.panasonic.com/my/consumer/batte...ce-aa-size.html

Can refer here

there are 2000 and 1900. Clear in e ads. Also, need not go further, just saw below this thread... there is eneloop advert for 1900mah

there is not way to determine the EXACT capacity of the battery,

hence, it will sell at eg: 2000mAh, with fine print, minimum of 1900mAh, but wouldn't know the max capacity could be 1990, 2010, or 2090 or 2999 or 4000 or 5000 or 9999mAh but you know damn well it has minumum of 1900mAh... its just word play to prevent lawsuit. (selling extra no complain, selling under 1 mAh lawsuit knocking on your door)

dont go bother urself with 1900 or 2000 or 2100 declared shit. its just there is no way to determine the 'exact' capacity of every battery. there is always a +-10% error capacity.

so some shop will say its 1900 or some shop says 2000.... but with 2000, with proper management, each set (4pcs) can last an average of 4-5 years of weekly events. rm50 for 5 years investment, average one year is rm10... its cheap, dont so kira laaa..... lol
