My 15-minute Ray-O-Vacs start out in the high nineties, but quickly drop
to the seventies, where they seem to remain for a long period of time,
from where they slip into the sixties for more or less the same length
of time. From there, it's a pretty fast decline.

My rechargables never show 75% even when full, upper 60's is all I've
ever seen.
