what is the run time of the new rechargable batteries vs. the regular ones ? And is there a "break in" period ?

We talking the Go cameras (that's the section we're in) or the original wireless cameras? If the latter, run time obviously depends on usage, being the total minutes of recording and live viewing. I get 1 to 1.5 months with my typical usage but others report 3 months or so. The rechargeable batteries can actually last a bit longer than OEM in heavy usage while in very light usage the OEM batteries can last 7 to 9 months.

Agree... If you're talking the Netgear approve rechargeables in an Arlo camera, my usage comes in at 50-60 days... but really no cost after the original purchase so it's all good
