GE/SANYO eneloop 4 Pack AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries

Product Description

eneloop is a new type of battery, which satisfies your needs and expectation in an unique way. This battery can be used right after purchasing, has a high performance, has a long shelf life with no loss of energy, can be used everywhere, environmentally friendly and easy to use. Unlike disposable batteries which can only be used once and wasteful, eneloop batteries can be recharged replacing 1000 disposable batteries.

Amazon.com Product Description

In years past, you had to recharge your rechargeable batteries before leaving on a trip or sliding them into your electronic device. Otherwise, you ran the risk of depending on nearly dead batteries once you reached your destination, as stored power tends to degrade over time. Now GE/Sanyo steps into the void with its eneloop line of batteries, which come pre-charged and ready to use right out of the pack. Even better, the batteries have an extremely low self-discharge rate, with the ability to maintain 85 percent of residual capacity after one year of storage and 70 percent residual capacity after two years of storage. As a result, leaving home without recharging the batteries won't ruin your Bryce Canyon vacation or cross-country plane trip.

Eneloop batteries offer a number of advantages over traditional alkaline batteries, including up to four times more power when used in a digital camera, high performance even at low temperatures (down to 23 degrees F) during your winter vacation, and a vast cost savings in the long run. The eneloop advantages are even more glaring when compared to typical NiMH batteries: not only are they ready for use right out of the box, but they generally last longer than most NiMH batteries (continuous and frequent recharging can destroy other NiMH models) and save both time and money (traditional NiMH charging is slow when you're in a hurry, while rapid chargers are expensive). All told, you can recharge eneloop batteries up to 1,000 times without experiencing a memory effect; just charge the amount you need and you're set.

This four-pack of 2,000 mAh AA batteries is ideal for everything from digital cameras to TV remotes to portable audio players.

5 out of 5 stars I am replacing all my Nimh batteries with these........2007-12-26

I love Nickel Metal Hydride batteries. I got gadgets and toys all around the house, so I constantly charging batteries to have them ready when I need them. But as you know, they are unuseable after you put them in the shelf for a month. Which is a waste of time and energy. If you really want to be green, then you need these low-discharge batteries. I have started to replace all of them with Eneloops.
The only problem is? Now there are bunch of low-discharge batteries coming out. Kodak, Rayovac, I also see some at Thomas Distributing which are cheaper than Eneloops. I do not want to mix them up, plus have not tried the others. So, I stick with this brand at this time.

5 out of 5 stars Best rechargeable AA batteries I've ever used.......2007-12-26

I've been using rechargeable AA batteries for camera and flash use since the 1970s. Yikes, I feel old :). We have had two sets of these for a year now and they are far and away the best I've ever tried. The low self-discharge rate makes them useful in ways that traditional NiCad and NiMH batteries aren't. Traditional rechargeables are useless in applications where they might sit for a time then be put to heavy use.

I haven't done the detailed analytic testing of some other reviewers, but after a full year of regular use I can say that these are everything you want in a battery. Powerful, long lasting, easy to recharge and never the source of frustration or disappointment!

5 out of 5 stars Finally a rechargeable that is charged when you need it.......2007-12-26

Have used rechargeable batteries for over 30 years. These are the best I have ever used. Old NiCd batteries don't have the capacity and have memory effect. New high capacity metal hydride require charging just before use as they self discharge so quickly - allways dead when I go to use digital camera or radio. These can sit unused for months and still have almost a full charge. Store FRS radios in truck and they are still useable for 8 hours after sitting for almost a year!! I currently own 40 AA and 30 AAA. Highly recommedned

5 out of 5 stars Great batteries!.......2007-12-26

I purchased these batteries to use in my new Canon Powershot S5 IS digital camera. It sure is nice to purchase pre-charged batteries! I have been taking a lot of pictures and the batteries still are going strong! My friends are always putting new batteries in their cameras, while I am still taking pictures! I have been recommending them to everyone! I keep referring everyone to the Eneloop web site, so they can read about how they work and how long they last compared to regular batteries. I have also purchased some more of them for other digital products that we own. We are definitely very happy with them! I would recommend them for all of your electronic products! GE/SANYO eneloop 4 Pack AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries. By the way, the charger is a nice addition to them, too!

5 out of 5 stars lasts long time.......2007-12-25

These batteries last longer than normal AA long life batteries in digital cameras. Well worth the going price especially at discounters like Amazon and they are pre-charged already to go.

Sanyo Eneloop Battery Charging Kit with 2,000 mAh AA Rechargeable Batteries (4-Pack)

Product Description

The classical advantages of rechargeable batteries are: high performance, especially if high discharge currents are required ( like in digital cameras ) cheap in use, because they can be recharged many times; environmental friendly, because one rechargeable battery replaces 1000 disposable batteries; good performance at low temperatures. A special feature found in eneloop batteries from Sanyo is an extremely efficient (low) dormant discharge rate. That means, when not used, the charge is retained for long periods. Of course you (and we) recommend using these batteries over and over/ Just in case you don't, you can be assured the battery will retain up to 85% of its charge over the course of a year.Because the eneloop has a very low self-discharge, SANYO can ship the batteries in a charged state so they're ready to use out of the pack. In contrast to a disposable battery the eneloop can be charged 1000 times. This saves the environment and your purse. Thus one eneloop saves the waste of 999 disposable batteries. Even if you consider the slightly higher cost of the eneloop compared to a disposable battery and add the cost for the charger and the energy consumed by the charger, the investment for one eneloop returns easily after a few charging cycles. Imagine how much money you have spent for batteries in your life. Now there is an end to this spending!

The kit also offers a number of safety features, including an over-voltage protection system that shuts down when a dry-cell battery is accidentally inserted and a built-in protection system that boasts industry-leading safety and reliability features. And thanks to the unit's foldaway AC plug--which offers worldwide voltage--you can take the lightweight charger virtually anywhere.

5 out of 5 stars GREAT batteries and charger for digital cameras!.......2007-12-26

Wow! These batteries last SO much longer than the regular Alkalikne AAs I had been using in my digital camera. The charger is awesome too, as I can have 4 charged batteries. This means an extra set just waiting until I need them. And, since they are low self-discharge... no run-down while they are waiting to be used. Definitely give these a try!!!

5 out of 5 stars Great charger!.......2007-12-26

When I purchased several packs of the AA rechargeable Eneloop batteries, I purchased this charger, Sanyo Eneloop Battery Charging Kit with 2,000 mAh AA Rechargeable Batteries (2-Pack), to go along with them. This charger is easy to use and works as expected. The price is reasonable, and you get 4 batteries with it. I would recommend this charger to go along with your batteries. I have been telling everyone about it, along with the batteries. A great product.

5 out of 5 stars worth 6 stars, if possible.......2007-12-06

Simply the best batteries on the market today. Rechargeables which come charged, have the shelf life of alkalines, and yet give more uses than the best alkalines, and can be charged 1000 times? What's not to like?? Forget throw aways, forget the other brands of rechargeables, these are the ones to get, and the charger is a "smart" charger so it knows how to charge properly for optimal battery life.

5 out of 5 stars very handy!.......2007-11-29

I got the charger because I have two digital devices that were constantly sucking up batteries. The charger works great, it is very simple to use, and it comes with batteries! It's really saved me a lot of money in just a couple of months.

5 out of 5 stars Great Batteries.......2007-11-26

These are the top batteries on the market. MUCH more durable than regular rechargeable ones. RECOMMENDED!

5 out of 5 stars Batteries that keep their charge.......2007-11-25

Great batteries that don't discharge waiting for their next use. I know that when I pick up my flash unit a week or a month from now, the charge will still be there.

5 out of 5 stars Not your normal, crummy NiMH battery.......2007-11-17

I replaced the batteries in my engineering model calculator with three AAA eneloops several weeks ago. The batteries have kept going and going compared with regular NiMH AAA's which are not suitable for long term low drain devices like this because they won't keep going and going. They disapate far too quickly. You would have to recharge them so often it would make you crazy.

I also like the idea I can keep several sets of eneloops charged up and ready for use in my camera, a high drain device, for which a regular NiMH might be useful. Problem is I don't take all my photos within a day or two and regular NiMH's disipate. Once again, I have to recharge. Not so with eneloops. For me these batteries are the greatest.

2700 mAH's (or more in the future) of energy storage capacity for the highest regular NiMH's does not trump eneloops 2100 mAH for me if most of the 2700 mAH's disipates within days of its having been charged. TV remote controls, calculators, shavers and all sorts of uses where alkalines were more appropriate eneloops (or other hybrid NiMH batteries) can now be used. Good job!

5 out of 5 stars Dated September 2006.......2007-11-13

I received them this week and was surprised at the date on them and more so that when I put them in my remote they worked perfectly without recharging them. I think the advertising is true. I'll add an addendum if I find they do not last long or there is some other issue. As for now, I'm impressed.

5 out of 5 stars Midland GMRS 2-way radios.......2007-12-13

I have been using 2 way GMRS radios for about 15 yrs from fishing in Alaska to bird hunting in Ohio. I have tried several brands recently and these have been the best for clarity of voice and distance, regardless of price. I first tried them in NW PA 2 weeks ago steelhead fishing in a twisting canyon for a distance slightly over a mile. They worked fine. What a blessing to have a charger to set them in at night so they are ready to go the next morning. I set them up with manual activation rather than voice. I like the "beep" feature when the transmit button is released, NOAA weather radio that really works, and a size that is not the smallest, but that might be why they work so well. The only negative is that they have so many features you can use, it takes a bit of practice setting them up so everyone is communicating the same. Four of us (2 sets)are using them and all comments were positive.

2 out of 5 stars It's not all it says it is........2007-12-11

I assumed the walkie talkies would work well after seeing good reviews.

I just used these on a cruise with 6 other people and 26 miles is not even close to what we got, the farthest we could use these were at most 1 mile over open water, fully charged.

Many times I couldnt even hear the others while on the same boat.

Only at about 300 feet or less you can hear the other person pretty good, anything beyond 300 feet it gets very staticy or you can't hear them at all.

Besides they are very bulky.

A few times after charging it for 6 hours the battery would die out right away.

The chargers are preety cool but they dont let you know when the walkie talkies are fully charged, you have to guess or look at the battery icon which is not the best indicator, considering it can show full and die an hour later.


4 out of 5 stars Good hand held .......2007-11-22

A very good hand held radio for family communications at a reasonable distance of 3 to 4 miles,but if you are expecting to be able to communicate at the claimed 26 mile range,you will be disapointed, as you will be with any of these types of hand helds that claim over a 5 mile range, unless you can get access to a repeater, and that is a whole nother situation which requiers an FCC licence.
I bought these for there small size, ease of operation and solid construction, they perform as I expected and I am very satisfied.

4 out of 5 stars Great radios.......2007-11-07

We used these in the NC mountains on a large piece of property that we own. Our cell phones don't work there, but these radios were great. We ordered a second pair for when more family is in the area!

4 out of 5 stars GMRS Radio Performance.......2007-11-06

I recently purchased two Midland GXT710VP3 22-Channel GMRS 2-way Radios. I find that they operate very well. They are easy to operate and communications is good. However dont expect the 26 mile range they advertise. Like any other GMRS radio, you can expect about a four mile range under perfect conditions and in nonperfect conditions a mile or less is common. Perfect conditions is straight line.

4 out of 5 stars worked.......2007-12-15

I got this for my old(er) DeWalt cordless XR drill and it worked like it should have. I like the option of being able to replace just the internal battery rather then having to buy a whole unit. I haven't had this long enough to know how it will hold up compared to the two the drill came with but being a NiCad rather then NiMH I don't expect it to last forever in my environment. Overall it was less expensive to get here then my local dealer or hardware store. So if you need a batter for your DeWalt 14.4volt tool check the price locally fist to see exactly how much you will save buying it here.

This battery is an improvement over the originals, not doubt. However, my last replacement battery was a no-name brand that, in spite of being 8 months older, holds a charge longer than this battery. And it was cheaper. Unfortunately, I didn't keep record of it's source!

What can I say. I use my Dewalt tools everyday. I am still amazed by the power of these rechargeable battery-operated tools. The batteries last effectively between 1-3 years before I wear them out. I number and date the batteries and I rotate their usage to get the most out of them. They charge (after the first time) in a half hour. They are expensive but worth it.

Amazon.com Review

Step up to the extra power of the DeWALT14.4-volt XRP battery pack. This high-capacity NiCad (nickel cadmium) battery delivers 40 percent more run time than standard NiCads. That means you can work longer—drive more screws, bore more holes—and spend less time swapping out and recharging batteries.

The XRP pack, which stands for eXtended Run-time Performance, will fit all of DeWALT's 14.4-volt cordless tools and chargers, except its Univolt tools. Finally, remember to recycle your old batteries. --Joseph Truini

5 out of 5 stars Cost effective.......2007-12-22

These batteries do not last quite as long as the alkalines from the top two brands. However, they will last about 85-90% of the big boys, depending on application, and they are a *lot* cheaper. That makes them a really good, cost-effective choice unless the device you are using them in has batteries that are difficult to change.

Amazon.com Product Review

If you've got Black & Decker tools that run on 18-volt batteries, you may as well stop reading here and just click on "Add to Shopping Cart." This Ni-Cad battery is a must-have for all Black & Decker tool owners.

Black & Decker has built in a "no memory" technology that gives you 500 recharges (and more, we've heard) without ever losing capacity. And we could be wrong, but we think these do seem a little more powerful than the batteries that come with Firestorm and other Black & Decker 18-volt tools. But like those, these slide super-easily on and off tools, so even smaller hands have no trouble with them.

We bet you're headed over to the "Add to Shopping Cart" button now. Excellent choice.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Many Walmarts are blowing out a B&D 18v cordless drill kit that includes the drill, an additional 18v flashlight and stud finder that inclues TWO OF THESE FIRESTORM 18v BATTERIES FOR $20. Best deal while you can find them. Batteries in this package were manufactured in 2/07.

5 out of 5 stars Battery Magic.......2007-10-24

I just bought this battery to replace the two original batteries, so I'm really reviewing the originals. They held up for four years with moderate (read "homeowner") use. I think that's exceptional, since I've read that getting just two years out of these batteries is good. Although I've had some trouble with Black & Decker battery chargers, the batteries themselves have performed better than expected. If the one I just bought does as well I'll be thrilled.

1 out of 5 stars Forget using it for Pac-man.......2007-12-17

I bought this to go with two tv-games I just bought-both of which were NOT on the "incompatible" list... and let me tell you...

In regards to the "Jakks Ms. Pac-Man TV Game" ([...]) I just CANNOT get it to fit in there (maybe I'll have to fiddle with the battery coils on the unit...) The spring-type of device this thing uses to "help" you install is twitchy... just as others have mentioned. I gave up after an hour trying to get it to fit into the thing, and believe me... that is no exaggeration of time.

In regards to the "Jakks Pac-Man Gold TV Game" ([...]) I got it to fit after about a 15 minute struggle BUT surprise surprise.... the screw-holes in my AC adaptor to be used to screw it into my unit... THE HOLES DON'T LINE UP! Even see the customer photo I uploaded! The black "nub" with the screw hole is too short to even match the holes on the device! So what did I end up doing? I ended up resorting to taping the AC adaptor to the unit... quick fix, but certainly not the solution!

If you planned on getting this for either of the 2 pac-man tv games I mentioned above... save yourself the money and get some batteries or find a different adaptor because this one will get you nowhere. It's a good thing that this was on sale at the time I bought it, and it was only a waste of $[...].

3 out of 5 stars TV adaptor.......2007-12-07

I think this is a great idea and I am sure that there is someway to make it work. The only thing is that I can't figure out how to get it into the Jakks Video game I read the instructions and have a screw driver to fit but can't seem to get it to fit into the toy properly. So, I haven't been able to use it yet.

5 out of 5 stars This is a great product!.......2007-09-15

I don't like batteries anymore. I have a really old handheld game, and until recently, I hadn't touched it in 6 years. Recently I found it and discovered that I had left the batteries in it all that time. A semi-dry crystalline-like substance had leaked out of the batteries and all over the game and everything that was sitting under it. What a mess. I even developed a strange looking bruise on my finger shortly afterward, and that may have been caused by contact with the substance while trying to clean up the mess. Who can remember to remove the batteries from something that they won't use for a while? No one is going to know if they won't use something for a while. That's why I don't like batteries anymore.

I have 2 of the Jakks TV games, Ms.Pac-Man and Super Pac-Man. I was going to order 2 of the AC adapters, but noticed that the screw hole on Super Pac-Man was further from the battery compartment than the screw hole on Ms.Pac-Man, so I didn't think the AC adapter would fit both games. I just received the AC adapter, and noticed that the thing with the screw slides in and out so it actually fits both Ms.Pac-Man and Super Pac-Man! It was a little confusing as to how to plug it into the game, but I think it's easier than it first seems, and you just have to plug it in, screw it down and trust that it will work. And it worked for me with Ms.Pac-Man and Super Pac-Man! I'm going to order a second one, so that I can play both games without having to unscrew anything.

5 out of 5 stars Does Exactly What It's Supposed To Do.......2007-06-11

This is an AC Adapter for Jakks Pacific Tv Games. I purchased it for use with Ms. PacMan/Xevious and Commando/1942. It works great and I see future potential for retrofitting AC capability onto other 6v devices with the same battery configuration. Specific compatibilities are clearly stated on the product packaging. I may buy another.

2 out of 5 stars Yeesh... what a pain.......2006-01-13

Looking for a way to reduce the need to change batteries on my TV Games® plug-&-play units, I grabbed the company's "universal" power adapter That fits into each unit's battery compartment. Well, ALMOST each unit... hence my use of quotations around the word "universal" a few sentences back. Due to either the way the batteries are aligned in some TV Games units, and different power/amp/wattage feeds in others, the adapter isn't nearly as "universal" as advertised. The packaging did give me fair warning about which P&Ps it won't work with, which includes the Atari Paddle, Classic Pinball, Bass Angler Championship, and the Kids Brand (aka NickToons, Disney, etc.) controllers.

Fortunately (?), I was able to use the adapter with my Atari (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000645DD), ActiVision (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0001HYSG4), and Wheel of Fortune (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0009FIN7I) units... granted I can get the battery compartment plug-in plate to behave itself properly, which seldom happens. The springs on the plate's sliding pins are strong, which means you really gotta push the pins in to get `em to stay in place. And if the plate's battery compartment screw isn't properly tightened down, the whole deal can pop out on you. On something of an upside: although it sticks out prominently from the battery compartment, the plate doesn't screw up the ergonomics of the TV Games units I use it with; it doesn't make the comfort level any better or worse. Still, you'd think Jakks Pacific could've taken a far simpler route and just included direct AC adapter jacks on all of their P&P units, and made a truly universal adapter for those P&Ps, so I wouldn't hafta go through all these battery compartment hijinks. But, I guess that's too simple an idea...

But if Jakks IS gonna run with this idea, I'm hoping they'll at least consider selling just the plate part of the adapter so I won't hafta pull the one I have outta one P&P and stick it into another when I wanna play a different TV Games unit. I did consider trying it out with other non-TV Games units that featured the same battery compartment alignment, but the only one where it worked was with the Commodore 64 P&P ()... although the plate was a tighter fit into the C64 compartment than I'd prefer. I'm a bit leery with using this with non-TV Games units, however, because of compatibility issues.

Speaking of compatibility: the adapter's ratings are as follows:

- Input: 120 Volts AC, 60 Hertz, 2.5 Watts

- Output: 8V DC No-Load 1.2VA

- Ideal to be used with DC 6V, 200mA power consumption device

- Positive-core plate jack

Bottom line: Installing the plate part of the adapter can be a major hassle, and really wouldn't have been necessary had Jakks had the foresight to include direct AC adapter jacks in their P&Ps. Still, as soon as the plate's installed and properly screwed down, it keeps its place quite securely. Should Jakks release just the plate part for sale in the future, this might be worth the trouble. Until that day, however, methinks I'll stick to using batteries on my TV Games...
