Best Batteries Ever, November 20, 2009Finally.... a rechargable that I'm satisfied with., November 20, 2009I'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.

Hundreds of owners give Sanyo eneloop batteries mostly very positive reviews, praising the fact that they don't need to be charged out of the box. While some say the batteries self-discharge more quickly than Sanyo claims, they also acknowledge that they retain their charge much longer than conventional NiMH batteries.
