I have recently purchased a like new Pentax k100d Super camera. The camera has only 848 (verified) shutter clicks. It worked flawlessly until I placed my Energizer Nimh 2300 Amh rechargeable batteries in it. The batteries had been charged for a little more than 24 hours. There was barely enough juice to see the flashing battery icon in the LCD, which indicated a powerless battery. The batteries are also in like new condition, they work perfectly in other gear. I did place new Duracell alkaline batteries in the camera, and no problem. The LCD panel displayed a battery level at full power.
I will appreciate any help available. Almost forgot. The Instruction Manual for the camera clearly indicates that it is recommended to use NiMH rechargeable batteries, although it does not indicate the Ampere millage per Hour.
Rgds,

Well, I am back sportsfans with some sad news. In my previous posts regarding the subject of batteries, I indicated that I would not rely on re-chargeables again and stick to the non-rechargeable batteries. On July 25, 2015 I purchased a set of two Duracell CR-V3 batteries, brand new with an expiration date of March 2022. The seller assured me they would be fine until March of 2017. With very little usage, the batteries went dead on me today. I could not believe my misfortune. This morning I turned the camera on (Pentax K100D Super) and the battery life indicator clearly showed a fully powered set of batteries. Took a few shots of my wife and that was it. I came back to the computer to upload them, and it was a no go situation. Dead, not a little dead, but DEAD, DEAD. Of course I was flustered and disappointed but not too upset since I received these items free of charge. Amazon allows a customer to use Bonus Rewards Dollars on their credit cards to purchase items. So, it appears as though it is back to square one.
Thanks for reading,
Tony
