OT: iGo in Sccts on woot

2012-10-14 Thread der.hans

moin moin,

anyone know iGo headquartered in Scottsdale?

iGo claims to have rechargeable alkalines that hold their charge and have
the same voltage as disposable alkalines.

ZDnet says they aren't high capacity.

I've been buying eneloops for years and highly recommend them.

CostCo has multipacks.

Anyone know iGo the company or the products?

ciao,

My buddy used to work there. I can't speak for their batteries, but they 
manufacture power supplies under their own label as well as Dell and Lenovo. 

I personally use the pre charged Duracell rechargeables. The key part is 
buying the slow-self discharge types of batteries. They are typically marketed 
as pre charged.
