Overview: All Eneloop batteries 2005-2024

What Ezarc said..

If you really need the runtime (if youre out in the country without being able to recharge batts go for the XX/PRO harmolattice..)

If you regularly (able to) charge the batteries, I think the standard would suffice.
especially if budget is tight, I would go for the classic.

Thanks guys. That is really helpful and exactly what I wanted to know.

Out of interest, what is the stated recharge cycles for the XX - is it 1,000 cycles ?

I thought it was 500.

yes, 500, see first and 2nd post of this thread...

  • Eneloop XX: 1st generation*4
    AAA: not existing

    ...AA: HR-3UWX 500cycles Rated 2,500mAh. Min 2,400mAh
  • Eneloop XX: 2nd generation *4
    AAA:
    HR-4UWXB 500cycles Min 900mAh
    ...AA: HR-3UWXB 500cycles Min 2,450mAh
  • Eneloop XX: 3rd generation *4
    AAA:
    BK-4HCC 500cycles Min 900mAh
    ...AA: BK-3HCC 500cycles Min 2,450mAh

OK, thanks. That is low. I think I will stick to the standard then.

Kind of.. but keep in mind that when you charge them once every week, you can use them almost for 10 years in a row ;)

Sounds better when you put it like that ;)

In any case, I have ordered the latest 1800 cycle Eneloops now.

Thanks for your help

"Thank YOU ChibiM and the other contributors too, of course, for starting and maintaining this wonderfully informing thread!

I recently received some Eneloop battery's from Amazon and was able to verify, by the above thread info, that as far as markings go, they seem to be genuine 2nd gens made in Dec 11 and Feb 13. I haven't started the torture cycle yet but I will post the results once I get a round toit.

Imho the problem with counterfeit merchandise isn't that it may work almost as well as the real deal, it's that you have been cheated on the deal by the merchant. Thanks all for helping to expose these ba...uh...behaviors.

Cheating for paper...

They are at presently only availble in Japan.

That’s Why we have a friend from Tokio :stuck_out_tongue:

Yea but apparantly Kipperman doesn’t :open_mouth:

Hi Scott,

what picrthis said... they are (as far as I know) only available in Japan. Almost every store carries them, except for the D and C cells, which are not available everywhere.

Thanks for the quick replies.
So, I assume that noone is aware of a store (or website) in Japan that can ship these to a US address?
Thanks again
-Scott

Amazon Japan carries them.

Not that I know of, and if they do, price including shipping will be high.

Actually, I heard some shop at Rakuten.co.jp sends overseas.. but at a premium price.

Maybe ebay will help you out, Im sure there are no fake 4th generation eneloops yet... (because they dont sell them overseas)

Pretty sure they dont ship overseas.. you can give it a try though
