Low Discharge NiMH AA and AAA Batteries Add Simplicity to Rechargeable Power
In November of 2005 Sanyo introduced the “eneloop”. It was called a new battery that would replace the dry cell battery for the 21st Century. It has become part of a new generation of nickel metal hydride batteries, promoting a new lifestyle - one where disposing of batteries becomes one of reusing and recycling.
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. Read More
