AtBatt.com offers both single use and rechargeable camera batteries.  Since most cameras use specific batteries and chargers for specific models, we created a cross reference guide to help you select the exact replacement battery for your camera.  Although single use batteries such as alkaline and lithium primaries are convenient and have better single use performance, we recommend you the rechargeable camera batteries to help save our environment.   There are lots of reasons to use rechargeable batteries in your everyday devices, but if you’re not convinced, see our Blog "Why Go Rechargeable?"   Plus, you will save money with the rechargeables as well.  
 

 

Difference Between Lithium and Li-ion Batteries for Digital Cameras.
 

 Lithium and alkaline camera batteries are primary batteries and only designed for single use.  Primary camer batteries cannot be recharged.  Although the average cost-per-use will exceed the cost of rechargeables, they benefit from better single use performance and low self discharge characteristics.  Low self discharge means that it can be store for extended period of time without losing its voltage or capacity.

Li-Ion and NiMH camera batteries are considered secondary batteries, which means that it can be recharged with its designated camer battery chargers.  Heavy users such as professionals and avid enthusiasts will benefit from the economic cost-per-use value of rechargeable battery packs.  However, rechargeable camera batteries will perform considerally less in comparison to its brethern primary batteries.   Another benefit to rechargeable camera batteries is the benefit to the environment.
