Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sanyo Eneloop AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries - 4 Pack
Customer Review: As good as they say!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have never been into rechargeable batteries. Family and friends have, and from their experiences, I can see that it's just not worth it. Rechargeable battery technology just isn't quite there yet.
Or so I thought. Until I tried these. I have been absolutely impressed with how long the charge lasts, both in use and in storage. And performance is even better than regular AAs; at least, the flash on my digital camera recharges quicker than it used to.
I have purchased over two dozen batteries and two chargers, and I'm switching out all my devices -- remotes, video game controllers, etc. -- as their batteries die. I keep a few extra near the charger so that whenever one set runs dry, I can pop in new ones while the old ones are charging. Because the batteries have a long storage life, this works perfectly!
I have also recommended these batteries to a few friends and everyone who has tried them has been pleasantly surprised.
Customer Review: Wow

With my battery hungry Samsung digital camera, my name brand Nicd cells were depleted within either 5 photos or 10 seconds of video. Literally, the camera would shut down not to be turned back on until I purchased fresh Nicds for 5 more pictures, don't even ask about generic batteries, I might as well just throw my money away.
But these ENELOOP batteries are my saviour in the battery world, they power my wireless Xbox and PS2 controllers now, they power my digital camera, making full use of the 512 memory with battery life to spare, they also power various remotes and such around the house. The batteries being pre-charged is just icing on the long-battery-life cake.
For a battery purchase, you can't go wrong, and they're the same price as regular Nicd style batteries, so even if you don't recharge them, they'll still be cheaper in the long run (given the longer MAH rating_, amazing.
Customer Review: Outstanding Batteries!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Have you ever found a perfect product? I believe I found one with these batteries and the charger. Every review about these batteries was correct: good out of the package, last very loooong time in my Canon A710IS digital camera. It's hard to believe that somebody will have a technology that far superior than anybody else. I also bought 2 chargers: one for 2 batteries (can be used overseas) and one for 4 batteries (can be used only in US). Knowing now, how long the batteries last I would buy only 2-battery charger, as I don't need more than 1 set for several days. Before I buy anything, I do an extensive research. So I found a very few sites that review these batteries at all, and if you are reading reviews on Amazon, you are in luck, because you will end up with GE/Sanyo and will never regret it. I am only surprise that GE doesn't do an advertisement campain for a product that has no rivals.Customer Review: Works as advertised! Long shelf life, much longer than standard NiMH
Summary: 5 Stars
The problem with traditional NiMH rechargeable cells has been their self-discharge rate. Expect 3 months maximum before those batteries depleted to the point they are no longer usable in a device (under 1 VDC). Fully charged, NiMH cells stay at around 1.3-1.32 VDC. The Eneloop batteries come out of the box around 1.3 VDC and I have found that they drop only 0.001-0.01 VDC every month.
The negative aspect of the Eneloops is their capacity. While they have a long shelf life, they aren't as high capacity as standard NiMH cells, but that is acceptable with many of the low-demand electronic devices. If you have a digital camera or a flash light, chances are you won't really need the long stand-by life of the Eneloops.
Pros: Slow self-discharge rate, charges in NiMH chargers, affordable
Cons: Lower capacity than most modern NiMH cells
Overall: 5/5 stars
Customer Review: Best thing since sliced bread

Great buy!
Bought three packs of 4 batteries a couple of months ago. I mainly use them for my police scanner but also popped a couple in my old digital camera. It was a pleasure to pull them out of the pack, load them into the camera and, be ready to take pictures. Note: Just tested my camera. The batteries were loaded in the camera two months ago - right out of the pack. Yep, the camera worked fine with NO low battery siginal flashing.
Works great in my scanner and I am able to charge the extras in two hours in a charger. I am so happy with these batteries that, I'm planning on ordering several packs for gifts.
Save your self the extra time and, just order multi packs of the batteries.
Haven't had them long enough to see if the claim that the batteries don't have a memoiry problem but, all the other claims seem to be positively true.
