Panasonic BK-3MCCE/4BE Eneloop Mignon AA 1900 mAh Rechargeable Battery (Pack of 4)

These Panasonic AAs are now my go-to batteries. Renowned (and rightly so) for their high quality, Eneloops won't let you down. After testing every manufacturer, they are hands down the best rechargeables I've found.

You can buy cheaper rechargeables (I know, I have) - but nothing beats an Eneloop. Their advantage/pitch is that they don't loose their charge. Come charged, you put them in a drawer, when you need a battery they're ready to go. Get rid of your Duracells. I started off just using them for high-drain uses (game console controllers etc) - but not have them in everything from bathroom scales to clocks - and I have spares in my drawer. Problem with non-eneloops is that if you put them, say in a clock, they lose more power due to their inefficiency than the clock uses itself. Join me, and you will experience the pleasure of never ever having to buy another battery ever again. They're not cheap compared to some other lesser batteries, or alkalines you think will be OK for your clock over the next few years - but I cannot understate the feeling of liberation you feel when you've expunged your house of 'disposable' batteries. Try to imagine yourself in my current position. Share my mantra "I've bought my last battery" - just dive in there, replace the lot, and join me.

When I bought my iMac back in January 2013, I purchased it with the original Magic Mouse, Trackpad and wireless keyboard. I also bought the Apple battery charger which came with 6 x AA rechargeable batteries, shown in the photo. These original batteries, after 6 years of constant use, have now got to the point where a full charge lasts only maybe two days, where as they used to last easily 4 to 6 weeks. I scoured the internet looking for as close a direct replacement as I could find, and these Panasonic Eneloop 1900mAh were a near perfect replacement. I've recharged them in the apple charger and they charged up no problem, and I tested them in the magic trackpad and keyboard. So far I'm 48 hours in and the battery level still shows as 100%, so I fully expect these to be as good as the original Apple rechargeable batteries were. Obviously they'll be good for other uses, but I just added this in case anyone else is looking for batteries for older Apple input devices like I had.

I was just checking through my orders for something else and I saw these that I bought in 2014. I'm still using them ten years later and they're still going strong after plenty of use.

Critical Review. I used a Technoline BL-700 charger (Amazon £31.99) which can Discharge (measuring capacity) and Charge repeatedly until a battery achieves the same capacity on consecutive discharges then charges to FULL. I bought two sets of 4 AA Panasonic BK-3MCCE/4BE. First Set, first discharge capacity - 1437 - 1453 - 1444 - 1413 - Average 1437mAh FULL capacity - 2010 - 2020 - 1994 - 2030 - Average 2014 mAh (This does show that these batteries are what others call 2000mAh) On the packaging it states :- Fully Charged 100% - 5 years later 70% Using the above figures 1437 divided by 2014 equals 71.35% It follows, if the claim is correct, these batteries are 4/5 years old They may be old Sanyo Eneloop production but I would doubt they 4/5 years old, probably not more than 2/3 years. If, however, produced by Panasonic (who recently took over Sanyo) then the figures must cast serious doubt on the claims made regarding retention capacity. Second Set, first discharge - 1496 - 1500 - 1506 - 1486 - Average 1497mAh FULL capacity -2100 - 2070 - 2050 - 2130 - Average 2087mAh Percentage retention 71.73% My conclusion - The first charging was very similar to Uniross Hybrio 2000mAh I bought 3 years ago whose last recharge was Dec 2014 and had max capacity then just under 1900mAh. I deduct one star as I cannot see any real difference between these "New" batteries and others 3/4 years old.

Purchased these for use in a child’s Ikea kitchen. Last well and great to recharge,

Eneloop batteries are reliable and long lasting - I have some I purchased more than 10 years ago and they are still going. On that basis Eneloop batteries are very good value for money.

Purchased these on recommendation from various places. Our Oral B toothbrushes were not holding their charge as they are a couple of years old, rather than buy new it was a fairly simple job to replace the old short NiMH batteries with these. Plenty of YouTube videos to help but you need to be good with a soldering iron and happy to do some serious DIY. They come pre-charged which is great, from what people say they hold their charge well so hoping this is the case. It does say on package they can be charged 2100 times! Would recommend so far.

Durable

Chegou no dia certinho,produto excelente

These are great rechargeable batteries. Ive had many before and they have never lasted as long as these batteries can last, even with usage. We currently use them on our xbox one controllers and you can play for 3-4 days with normal usage 1-5 hours. The one con that I did note with these batteries is it takes a very long time to charge them (sometimes over 7-8 hours). I am not using a charger that is made by eneloop so that could be playing a role in the delayed charging. Ultimately, I plan to buy more and do recommend these.

Eneloops keep their charge. Since I discovered them I never bought any others anymore.

Empleo muchas baterías recargables por la cantidad de juguetes que tienen mis niños de 3 y 5 años y en los juguetes más exigentes donde las alcalinas se desenvuelven bien, 1,5 v, las baterías recargables me fallaban, en parte por el hecho de ser de 1,2 v y por lo laborioso que puede llegar a ser el mantenerlas en buenas condiciones, dígase vaciarlas del todo antes de recargarlas, carga lenta, quitarlas de los juguetes que no se vayan a utilizar durante tiempo y sobre todo no almacenarlas descargadas. Tengo 2 coches de radiocontrol de Nikko que llevan 4 pilas AA cada uno y he de decir que con las recargables que tenían, al poco dejaban de moverse con soltura; llevo utilizando estas baterías 2 tardes y un uso intensivo 30-40' cada vez y apenas dan señales de desfallecimiento!!!! Tengo 3 juegos de 4 pilas AA y cuando las puse a hacer el test de comprobación de carga en mis supercargadores technoline BC-700, con una relación calidad/precio envidiable, el voltaje que marcaba cada una de ellas era el mismo y una vez cargadas superaban ampliamente la capacidad anunciada. Recomiendo clasificarlas de 4 en 4 en cajitas de plástico; yo tengo las SODIAL(R) 5x , 2 euros 5 cajitas y tienen buena calidad. Una compra muy recomendable; pagas una vez algo más caro pero luego te olvidas y no tienes que acordarte de porqué has comprado baterías de mala calidad.
