Other quality manufacturers such as Maha Energy and AccuPower have joined in this new true revolution in portable battery power. Some very high quality batteries are now available in conventional cylindrical batteries such as AA, AAA, C-Cell and D-Cell. 9Volt low discharge batteries are also waiting in the wings.

It has taken two years for these NiMH low-discharge AA and AAA batteries to rise to the surface. Of course, insiders have known about them for some time. It takes a wave of information backed by those who are willing to try new things in order for the birth of this new technology to follow its discovery and invention. So the waters have been tested and users everywhere are reporting great tidings.

When stored at normal room temperature (68 degrees F), it is generally claimed that these low discharge batteries retain 90 percent of their charge after six months, 85 percent after one year, and 70 percent after two years. This low discharge quality gives longer life to the battery as well.

Although they have hold their capacity longer, whether used or on the shelf, they are excellent for high drain or high energy requirement applications. (more…)

The word “primary” means the first of its kind. The term “primary battery” has developed to mean the first battery, the historical “non-rechargeable battery”. Most of us have used hundreds of primary batteries, and traditionally these non-rechargeable batteries were the first and only type we had to use.

Rechargeable batteries have been around for several decades, but recharging conventional AA, AAA, C-cell, or D-cell batteries is fairly new concept. It is only in the last five years that these commonly used batteries sizes could be reliably recharged for use. For a long time the concept of a rechargeable AA or AAA battery was not taken seriously. The technology was not developed enough to be trusted.
