re chargable batteries

hi got two new sets of AAA batteries for my camera(2500mah)
before Xmas charged up as per instructions dis-charged and re charged
my old batts would take 150 photos (at 9 mill pix) the new ones take around 80, less if using the flash or video.

is there anyway to check how much charge is in the cell after they are charged
or does anyone have/know a cheep battery checker i could get??
also could my charger be the prob??
feeling constantly drained? :eek:

    You may find that it takes a few charge/discharge cycles before your new batteries attain full capacity. If you have another electrical device which uses AA batteries then discharge them with that device, then recharge. Do this a few times.
