BOUGHT 5!

OOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo I could always use more batteries.

Wasn't this cheaper the other week as a regular Woot!!!!!!!

Got two of these the last time around. They work great for my kids toys/remotes. Don't last terribly long in motorized toys, but they're rechargeable, so it doesn't really matter.

Wootalyzer.com's Network Status page has red lights next to all the woot pages.

You should know there is nothing "regular" about a woot off.

Previous discussions on these from past woots: 1 2 3 4

Yep, $7.99 on sellout

Even at $9.99, it's still a decent price.

Is anyone else's Wootalyzer stuck on an item from a few hours ago?

In for 2 even though they were just on sale the other day, but I already bought other stuff today so at least I've saved on shipping.

SO WHAT CAN BE DONE TO GET IT BACK TO NORMAL?

But today's shipping covers all items!

How well do these batteries last?

I always love me a good rechargeable battery.

Seems like a good deal, but these rechargeable batteries just don't last very long, especially in high-end electronics, at least not in my experience. Buying lithium batteries that last 4 times as long (even with recharging) is comparable in price.

Let's review, kiddies...

current item was Cheaper before..
woot's new look Sucks...
trying (and failing for 4 hours) to get Bucket of Coral was a Nightmare...
wootalyzer is Still showing the over-priced and sold-out headphones...

We Are Not Amused.

That's wierd, the RSS seems to be working fine. Wonder why wootalyzer isn't working?

Well, I got 2 of these a couple months ago, and can't really say how many charges the batteries last. But I will note that, when used in my Apple wireless mouse, the batteries rapidly discharge, getting down to 50% charge in about 4 days. Now I read on the Internet (so you know it's true) it's best to not let this kind of battery go below 50% charge. The good thing is they're cheap enough I have plenty to swap, and they do charge pretty quickly.

I salute you. I gave up after 2 hours and was certain as soon as I logged off it would all clear up.

Well I hope you wrote some feedback where it's supposed to go, cause complaining on this forum isn't going to get you anywhere..

Maybe YELLING a little louder might help?

Good deal still at this price since it comes with 8 batteries!!

You are right! Bring the old Woot back!

I got these on the recent sellout.woot (7.99) - and they just arrived today. So I'll just pretend I bought this and they arrived really really quickly.

I managed to score a Bucket of Coral this morning so trying to find something to get free shipping on so hopefully this moves along quickly. :P

Oh, what the hell... in for one but only because I already got a Bucket of Coral so I'll save on the shipping.

These are noooo good! The life deteriorates more and more after each recharge. Alkaline recharging is a complete waste of time and energy.

Great product! Love it!

And snide comments like that are the reason you only have a single quality post, I surmise.

ALL TOGETHER NOW

$2 more than last week? No thanks. I got mine!

As for comments about these batteries losing charge — I'm sick and tired going to my battery drawer and finding all my NiMH batteries have lost their charge while just sitting there. Unless you're constantly changing batteries in all your devices, NiMHs are a PITA.

I just read that wootalyzer uses these batteries and they're all dead, so they are waiting on a recharge before it starts working again. They should buy some more to have backups.

being as though I picked up 48 rechargable AA/AAA 3000 mAh batteries from eBay for $40 some bucks (under $50 for sure).

this isnt that great of a deal

OH YEA and remember to give these batteries a proper recharge memory if ya pick them up

cheers

First Woot Off for the new WOOT, epic FAIL! New Website brings higher prices....... the end of an era!

Pre-Amzn Woot was better. More cat pics.
*sigh*
