I had bad luck with cells purchased from Interstate through Amazon. The actual capacity of 500mAH N cells ranged from 289 to 388mAH. Interstate admitted their stock had gone bad, but would not replace them free of charge. The Ogaz batteries were better.

That equation only works for discharge. I think 50 hrs is a better estimate for charging. I recommend the BC-700 smart charger with N cell adapters from Ogaz.
