They’re good for at least 12 years. I have some Eneloops from 2006, and I’m going to run a capacity test on 8 of them this weekend. (I’ll post when I get the results.) Based on how they still perform, they’re still very good cells. Internal resistance is definitely higher than new Eneloops (based on the IR measurement from chargers), but it’s still low enough to use them in high-power lights. But I mainly just use them for radios and stuff like that, now.
@mapache: Good question, will ask him about the robot girls! You never know, but you can join the eneloop101 facebook group where I will be doing a giveaway soon. (when we reach 100 likes).. Have done enough of them here :D
@fran82: that question I already have on the list! great question.. definitely interested to know. I will meet him/them tomorrow afternoon.
I am looking forward to it! Just have no idea how much time I have with him/them. I literally have about 60 question.. LOL...
He might think to himself....oh boy oh boy, what did I get myself into?... that Dutchmen is crazier than I expected! (I will just pretend to not understand him)
Hey guys. Sorry I hadn't seen the updates in this thread. Somehow missed them. Someone told me on CPF about me not responding. Ask Boaz, he knows I always respond to his PMs in a timely manner ;)
Anyway, I sent the questions and answers in to double check for accuracy.. Hopefully will be receiving them back this week before I post them. If you guys have any other suggestions rather than posting them on the dedicated pages (FAQ and Charge), let me know!
Sorry for the delay.. Just probably a couple more days.
Since you're back, can you let me know if these AAA's with the number BK-4MCA24/CA are legit? Normally there are two "C's" after the M but this pack has only one C.
