When I used non rechargeable batteries My Nikon coolpix L20 camera displays Battery exhausted why?
Posted on Feb 14, 2010 under rechargeable battery | 2 CommentsI commonly used rechargeable batteries but in rare case when I insert new non rechargeable batteries in to my camera it does not work properly, display shows exhausted batteries, but it is fully loaded. what is the reason and remedy.
Though disposable batteries give out more voltage (1.5 versus 1.2) They cannot give out as much amperage. Few digital cameras will work with zinc carbon batteries (the cheap so called "heavy duty" batteries). Some digital cameras will not even work with alkaline batteries (such as Duracell). If you need to use disposables try using lithium batteries such as the Energizer lithium though they are expensive. The blue labeled ones are more expensive but last longer than the yellow labeled ones.

Could be the camera is telling you something – with standard batteries it’s not getting enough power.
Stay with the re-charge.
