Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sanyo Eneloop AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries - 4 Pack
Customer Review: Buying my 4th set
Summary: 5 Stars
I was initially skeptical when I bought these but figured it couldn't hurt. I needed a set for my Nikon SB-600 flash. The 2700 mAh Energizers I had performed just fine until they sat in the flash for a month, at which point I had to carry a spare set "just in case". I charged the Eneloops, placed them in the flash and had my first call a month later. They worked wonderfully. I went the whole evening without needed spares. I used them again two months later and got a solid hour or two before they were exhausted. They easily lasted 2-3x as long as the Energizers and where in the flash for 2x as long. All-in-all, they've performaed very well. They may not maintain 85% of their charge after one year at room temp (as one reviewer suggested) but they certainly "sit in the bag" far better than my others. I am slowly phasing out all my non-Eneloops as a result...Customer Review: Finally.... a rechargable that I'm satisfied with.
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using Eneloop batteries for about a year now and am really happy with them.
I initially bought them to use in camera flashes (Canon Speedlite 580 EXII). I wanted something rechargeable because I'd be going through a lot of batteries and I wanted something that held its charge a long time because there might be long periods of time before I use a flash. They have performed as advertised. They are long lasting and hold their charge a long time while waiting in my camera bag.
I've gradually replaced all the AA (and AAA) batteries in my house with these as my old batteries have died. It is great to know that I don't have to buy new batteries for all my remotes, Wii controllers, flashlights, etc.
I felt vindicated when I read Consumer report's positive ratings for these batteries.
Customer Review: As Advertised... W/O tech.
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the four pack of these when my Energizer's rechargable's went dead. Sorry for the spelling, Severe carpel tunnel.
I've had them for about two years, at least.
Using the Energizer charger set to Ni-Cd they seem to charge a bit slower than advertised.
However, they come on strong, and last. Even if they sit for many months.
I will be ordering another four pack, with their own charger.
As far as some of the complaints I've read, Every manufacturer, pushes out a Dog once in a while.
This is an inexpensive product, but, I think it does in a small way, good things for the planet, and
is convenient, especially with how I use them, Digital Camera, (Canon) and a tiny Maglite flashlite.
I wonder if their 12V's are any good?

Customer Review: ENELOOP SANYO AA Batteries are GOOD
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered the sanyo eneloop (Low self discharge) AA batteries and Sanyo 2700 mah NiMH AA for my digital Sony camera after much research. I am impressed with the ENELoop batteries, right out of the package they ran my camera for 2 hours CONTINUOUSLY in video record mode.
Even though they are rated at 2000mah, they charged to 2300mah in the Lacrosse BC-9009 charger.
Then, I compared them to the regular self discharge Sanyo 2700, after charging the 2700s, I got 3.5 hours of movie mode continuous recording. They just kept going and going.....
So my recommendation would be ENELOOPs, since they hold their charge and can be carried for use when taking vacation pictures.
BOTH the AA batteries were made in JAPAN and in my opinion, the best I have ever owned.
Customer Review: Finally, rechargables without self-discharge
Summary: 5 Stars
I had always been frustrated in grabbing the digital camera (Minolta S404, using 4 AAs). We'd have to "schedule" it because by the time we went to grab it, the NiMH batteries would have discharged to the point that a few pictures would shut the camera down. Of course, recharging on the spot is not an option, and leaving the batteries in a charger all the time isn't a good thing either.
While the Eneloops have a lower capacity ("merely" 2000MaH), so far they've worked exactly as advertised.
We'll see how they hold up over time, but until then, if your digital camera uses AA or AAA batteries, buy 2 sets _immediately_.
We'll see if they can be beneficial as an alkaline replacement as well on some RC toys. I'll have to do a cost and waste comparison compared to alkalines...
