Batteries don't hold charge any more. looking to buy new battery packs. kodak rechargeable packs kaa2hr 2100 mah ni-mh 1.2vx2

Hi,

you're not completely right. Kodak printer docks normally only charge the Kodak KAA2HR battery pack. It not charges normal Ni-MH rechargeable batteries of any brands.

Pls. use lithium batteries Ni-Mh or rechargeable Batteries (2000 M.Amp or higher).
Battery support : KAA2HR,CRV3, 2xAA Ni-MH and 2xAA Lithium-Ion
Here are the steps:

1. Make sure you will install a new or fully charged battery/batteries into your camera.
2. Clean the battery contacts.
a. Remove the battery/batteries and the memory card from your camera, then wipe the battery contacts with a soft, clean cloth.
b. Reinstall the battery/batteries into your camera
3. Without the memory card,turn on your camera.

Hi there,

you're right. You only can charge the Orginal KAA2HR batterypack of kodak in the cameras.

;-)

get a charger for the rechargable batteries. Charge the batteries and then put them into the camera. You cant really chare the camera..

what rechargeable batteries are you using and what's your method of charging?

If your using a dock for charging - make sure you have the battery pack kodak kaa2hr otherwise the dock won't charge it

if you're using a separate charger - it's ok to use other AA ni-mh

please check the age of your batteries as well.. batts, even rechargeable eventually wear out - they can last up to 300 charging cycles and a year or a little more than that is enough for you consider buying a new set

if you say that you barely use the cam, batteries still deteriorate through time

Inside the battery compartment, on the same side as the battery cover hinge, you will see a small white mechanism. As I understand it, this is a microswitch which recognises when rechargeable batterys are installed. I suspect this may have been damaged. If so, you will need a rock-steady hand and brilliant eyesight to repair it. Even dismantling the camera is a challenge.
