7 Day Shop Battery sucks

    So I recently ordered 2 of the 7dayshop generic play and charge battery kits.

    http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_15&products_id=110390

    I thought I was getting a bargain, but they are terrible. On a full charge the battery seems to last maybe 3-4 hours. They are very lightweight so it really feels like there could not actually be much battery material inside of them.

    I would honestly recommend anyone to avoid these things. You get what you pay for.

    I wrote a review on them on 7dayshop website, but of course they did not post it because it was negative, so I wanted to post my impressions elsewhere.

    I got one of those energize rechargeable 4 batteries pack. They work a treat and anytime I have seen them they are half price at around 8 euro!

    I got two store brand Play & Charge kits in Game, Liffey Valley two years ago. Still going strong. I get about a week out of them if I play xbox for 2-3 hours a day.

    I'm using Orb branded ones from Xtravision, I get a few days out of them and I am a very heavy gamer. They come as a pack of 2 for about €12 so I leave one charge and use the other, it's a standard USB cable so you can charge from xbox and pc etc.

    Cable is very short so no good for play and charge though.
