Rechargeable batteries for Logitech Wireless Gamepad F710

[sanilmahambre]

I am having a Logitech Wireless Gamepad F710. I was thinking of buying a set of 2800 mAh rechargeable battries and a charger in next few days. Is it safe to do that or should i use some low capacity batteries. Please help me decide the right one.

As long as the voltage is the same and they still fit you should be fine. Just make sure you get a major brand such as Energizer or Duracell.

It should work fine

Also, spending the little bit of extra to get Lithium is probably a good idea if you can find them where you live. That will deliver solid power until the cell is drained, instead of a steadily decreasing powerflow like ni-cd batteries.

You should buy rechargables that will keep the charge for a longer time, they discharge at a much slower pace. For example: Sanyo enerloop. Or buy rechargables that can do that as well.

Enerloop can be rwcharges 1800 times, compared to others 1000 times...

Why is Lithium batteries better then Ni-cd batteries ?

Basically think of it as a cliff vs a hill on a line graph. Ni-cd batteries are a downwards sloping hill, power output steadily dropping as the charge decreases. Lithium is like a smooth run up to a sudden cliff, full power output until the cell is totally dead.
