Rechargeable AA Batteries

[72MachOne99GT]

Awhile back Sid or Tob posted a thread about decent rechargeable AA Batteries.

With my kids and their professional ability to run through a set of batteries for no reason, I figured I’d ask if anyone has used them consistently.

Our place consists mostly of gaming controllers, RC car controllers, and flashlights (A, not E).

Never lasted very long for me.

I have been using Energizer rechargeables for about 10 years, used to use them pretty much on a daily basis at work in a AA Flashlight, I had 2 sets, on on charge and one in the flashlight. Worked well for me, a set would last a couple years before needing to be replaced.

Panasonic Eneloop Pro is what you want.

I've tried rechargeables multiple times (never heard of the Panasonic Eneloop Pro) so I buy a big 40-pack of Duracells at Costco for around $20.00 and I'm good for a few years. I've got too many cord/cables for various devices as it is. I'm all about keeping it simple whenever I can.

Rechargeable batteries don't last long. I've tried a bunch through 4 kids, and none were any good.

I buy the big pack of the Amazon brand, no issues and great ratings. I buy a little small pack of the AAA's.

These are the ones I use. They last significantly longer than alkaline batteries (I use them in cameras):

How come the Amazon stuff doesn't show. I can see it's there when I quote you. This is all I see.

I was at IKEA a while back with my wife and I saw they had a 10 pack and the price was cheap enough to give it a shot.

They have been pretty damn good, especially for the price.

My old room mate has a ton of rechargeable batteries and has a charger that measures milliamp hours on them. The IKEAs seemed to wipe the floor with everything we had that wasn't a duracell or enegerizer, they were competitive with them but way cheaper.

This solves nothing if you don't have an ikea by you or if you have zero intention of going to one. If your wife is headed there tell her to grab a couple packs. I want to say it was like $4 for 10, but that was back before Biden so who knows now.

i think when I was messing with this issue previously it's something to do with my adblocker

I have a mix of Eneloop Pros and IKEA LADA. The capacity for mine were the same but I think the new pros might be a little higher.

There are two capacity LADA so make sure you get the higher capacity offering. The LADAs are like $7 for 4.

I have the Energizer one's and Eneloop, they both work great and last fairly long. I also have the fast energizer charger, must have for quick charges.

The amazon and best buy generic batteries are crap IMO, they loose charge pretty fast.

If you would turn off your anal intruder when done, they would last longer.
