| 1453457 | 2018-09-11 00:04:00 | Eneloop are still good, started out Sanyo and were bought by Panansonic.. Enerloop are still a good brand, as panasonic make good rechargables . Strangely I'd bet many Eneloop fans wouldnt touch Panasonic (that was sort of my point, they arnt the Eneloops of old ) And many Enerloop are actually fakes, so I wouldnt buy them as you really wont know what you are actually getting. Varta's are so cheap I dont bother using my many rechargeables any more, especially as I no longer use my digital camera (I use my ph) |

| 1453459 | 2018-09-11 19:41:00 | I use rechargeable Duracell AA's bought from ebay in the States they are fantastic and hold the charge for a very long time if not used. I also use a lot of rechargeable 18650 batteries which I tend to buy off Mr Positive NZ, link here (https://www.mrpositive.co.nz/) as he has good pricing, I also get replacement power tool batteries from here too for work. |

| 1453461 | 2018-09-11 21:06:00 | Maha Powerex rechargeables for me. Did buy standard Phillips aaa from a $2 shop recently, lasted 1 week in Firestick remote. Can you say "knockoffs!" |

| 1453462 | 2018-09-13 05:41:00 | I like the silver alkalines by Energizers. I use few AAS now. Pretty much rechargeables but they are now AAAs (tv remotes have gone from AAs to AAAs). Most devices these days have their own rechargeable specific batteries - phones, laptops, cameras etc. My camera's external flash still uses AAs but for that the rechargeable Panasonic Eneloops are fantastic and they are easy on your wallet. But a no. of camera flashes are now coming out with specific rechargeable batteries too. I guess the odd wall clock uses AAs. |
