Ever since I had my children, I’ve been amazed by the amount of batteries needed to operate each toy.  Almost every month I’m having to buy multi-packs of batteries to keep up with the power-hungry demands of these toys.  It is getting so ridiculous expensive to buy batteries.  The worst offender is the VTech camera but there are a group of toys that follow closely behind such as the Arc FX Gauntlet Iron man.

Being an environmental concerned consumer, instead of buying normal batteries, it occurred to me – why not get rechargeable batteries!  Rechargeable batteries are great for the environment, they save you money and reduce waste by replacing hundreds of standard Alkaline batteries! These starter kits are not too expensive either. Rechargeable Batteries kindly offered to give me an Ansmann Energy 4 Speed Charger with AA NiMH 2700mAh Batteries and a Sanyo eneloop for review.
