Panasonic added another battery charger to their curren lineup.... in Japan.
It's quite an interesting one I have to say. (charger + powerbank + flashlight in 1)
Instead of a normal power cord, you can charge batteries using a USB charger! (Cord included, not the USB charger)
Plus they added a flashlight as an attachment so you'll be able to have light during emergencies!
Panasonic BQ-CC87 L (light)
Hello.
I have 2 sets of Enloop rechargeable batteries (HR-3UTGA) but from different dates. I’ve been using them in my laptop wireless mouse and my camera’s flash. I also have a set of 4 AAA Enloop batteries (HR-4UTGB) that I use on my Casio calculator and a remote controller (IPTV box).
I have bought this Technoline BC700 charger to charge them. Is this charger appropriated? I bought it because of its features and because I found a few nice reviews about it.

Yes it ok , but it sometimes won’t terminate at 200ma ( like almost all chargers ) mine has only missed termination 3 times ,I use 500ma for AAA’s & 700ma for AA’s.
edit , but mine is made by lacrosse.
I would disregard most amazon reviews because there are alot of sellers on amazon that get the reviewers to pay for reviewed stuff & reimburses the reviewer if it’s a good review.

Correct Nev. That is what happened to mine as well. it wouldnt 'measure' the drop in Voltage, and therefore continue charging. Better charge at 700mA.
BTW, Eneloop101 received a new facelift today.. have a look
It feels a little 'fresher' now. Let me know what you think.

Hi, the specs are the same for the first generation eneloops, not the latest generation.
Take a look here: https://eneloop101.com/batteries/rewrapped-batteries/
Scroll down to the Fujitsu part: AA:HR-3UTD
There is a link to the blue ones

Currently only available in Poland. But they should be available in the rest of Europe pretty soon including at Amazon and Nkon.

I can understand. But you could order a few more packs or ask them to send in an envelope. Maybe that's cheaper.

They may or not may not send via letter.
I can buy ikealoops locally for 5€ a pack of 4*AAA 900mAh and 7€ a pack of 4*AA 2450mAh. I dont know if they are still made in japan… Ikea store is about 30km from my house.
Thanks!!

I have seen what I think are new rebadged eneloops…
I can take a photo.
They are “energizer recharge” with silver wrapping and green “recharge” letters.
They say “Made in Japan for energizer brands llc”
They say 700mAh.
Datecode says ” 0519CPOQ”
…
They should be eneloop… Only one manufacturing plant in Japan…
…
On the same store… “Energizer recharge extreme”: made in China
