LiewCF Tech Blog: Review: Eneloop Rechargeable Battery

  • dicky · 2 years ago
    How about the charger? Did it include the charger? I bought 1 pack of SONY AA battery at pasar malam, just RM10. But i don't know the quality yet.......

    Well, what about charger? how much is the price? can use generic charger or not? or must use the same brand?

    So this is a rechargable battery but we don't have to recharge it to use it? i am a little bit confused here.

    I heard Eneloop has got USB Battery Charger too.

    I was at PC Fair, I saw Energizer has a brand new product - USB Battery Charger. Useful but too expensive.

    Yes, it can be charged using generic charger. I use GP charger for the eneloop battery. Don't need same brand.

    @Shahid Ali: I already have a battery charger :)

    @James: yes, it got USB battery charger but I think it is slow as the USB power is low.

    I once bought a 4800mHa Sony rechargeable batteries from eBay, but it's fake :( . The thing is Sony did not come up with 4800mAH rechargeable. So becareful when you see this anywhere.

    So, am still looking for alternatives rechargeable batteries. this post really come in handy. Cool.

    @LcF: I see some selling UK based Uniross Hybrio batteries now, those similar like Eneloop.

    @Syahid Ali: We do not need to charge the Eneloop batteries when we use them for the first time. We take them out from the pack and they can be used straight away (like normal alkaline batteries). Once they have flatten out, we can recharge them (now they are like rechargeable batteries). If you don't use your digital camera for a year, the Eneloop batteries still maintain their capacity. Other rechargeable batteries would have flatten out again in 1 month.

    We can charge the Eneloop batteries using normal Ni-MH charger. I use Maha PowerEx charger.

    @Weilian: Thanks for making it clear!

    I think I'll go to buy the batteries later as I do want to get such powerful batteries into my Canon DC.
    Q:If i use the original Eneloop charger,how long will be for full charged of the batteries?

    I bought mine from DAVIS from lowyat.net. It comes with 1 yr warranty :D So far so good!

    You gave me an idea.

    Why don't we give these batteries as a Christmas/Hari Raya/Chinese New year present?

    And stick a note on it that says - "Toys not included".

    That'd be fun :P

    If you buy more than RM388.00 per invoice, I can give free 4AA.

    Full Charge for Quick Charger is about 3.6 hours for 2AA. Calculation is based on Output at 550mA (2AA). For 2AAA, is about 2.1 hours based on 380mA (2AAA)
