UK rechargeable batteries

For about 6 months I have been using a Duracell multi-charger off our 240 volt mains supply for both AA and 9v Energizer batteries. The 9v battery doesn't seem to last well in my electro-acoustic guitar and the AAs last no time in my Logitech chordless mouse.

Anyone else experienced problems with this sort of thing. Any recommendations for a better solution for renewables?

I gave up on my Logitech wireless mouse because of the battery issue and went back to the HP one (with a tail) that came with my pc.

Are you sure this isn't just a neko thing?    Confused

Once a  battery  light charger turns off,  the  battery  starts to loose voltage,    5- 10%  per day    ,  so  timing is important,  or   if you know you will need  it,  reseat the  battery and  you 'll see the charger  back on

 trickle charging is better for  battery life, ( slow charging) as   power charging  burns them out fatser

all batteries  have   x-amount of  recharges,    so  check the specs on a given  brand

I had a normal PP3 in my Ovation for 28 years before I had to change it (is that a record?), so I'd advocate normal batteries over rechargables in guitars.

Then again more modern guitars may use more power.
