What batteries should I use for my flashguns?

David Prendergast, Woolwich

Brian Says… I’ve tried a few different rechargeable batteries and have settled on the rechargeable Eneloop AA cells, which seem to have capacity beyond their specification. However, whichever rechargeable batteries you opt for, make sure to get a good quality battery charger that can charge each single cell individually. I have a Powerex charger with eight battery bays, and it has been in use with the same sets of Eneloop batteries for over four years now.

Eneloop batteries are a good choice, but use a charger that can charge each cell individually
