I've had loads of problems with 7 day shop own brand rechargables. I reported it to them and got no reply. The six packs of 4 AA batteries (total 24 batteries) and two packs of four AAA (8 total) all lose charge if left for a few days without use. I was using them for photography and it's a real hassle having to recharge that many (32 total) batteries all at once as close to a shoot as possible so they don't lose charge before you need them. So even though they seemed like a bargain price, they're fairly useless to me for their intended purpose.
They might be different now though as I'm fairly sure they're some other brand with a 7 day shop wrapper on.
Invest in good rechargables. I've had no problems with Uniross and Fuji branded ones.
