Overview: All Eneloop batteries 2005-2024

Some new eneloops coming up in August 2017.. Especially for Europe!

See all 21 limited editions ever produced in Japan and China on my site

Updated quite a few details on pages as well as added a few new pages.

Suggestions are welcome. Als I'm still searching for fake eneloops. Anybody has some?

these look great

Hey Boaz... thanks for not having to keep talking to myself ;) Yes, they look interesting. They remind me of the Forest tones without the camouflage.

Thank you for the reference, ChibiM.

My pleasure trume. I hope you enjoy the website.

Please please by all means let me know if there are any unanswered questions on the website.

Thanks for the informative thread/website.

I recently received some AAA Lites from an ebay seller in Japan. Based on the designations, these appear to be the China-made ones sold in Japan.

Upon first full charge/discharge cycle, my Opus charger reported the discharge capacity of 628 mAh.

I am in Vietnam and always have to buy low quality goods from China. Right now, I still do not know where to buy genuine :rage:

Yep, those are the ones made in China. They used to sell Japan-made eneloop Lite up till 2015-2016 when they changed to stock them from China. These are rated at 5000 cycles, while the Japanese ones are rated 3000 cycles. I actually bought some of the lite ones in Japan as well.

I have some Panasonic Eneloop Lite AAA for the Japan market (made 2015 Jun in Japan) that have the 5000 cycles rating on the packaging.

Have just ordered some new Panasonic Eneloop Lite AA and AAA. Will check whether the new ones are made in Japan or China. This ebay seller j-stop advertises them as Made in Japan. They have been trustworthy thus far.

That is interesting. He might have old stock. Im interested in knowing whether you will receive the Chinese or Japanese cells.

Amazing work, really helpful guide for buying Eneloop batteries. I checked the AA batteries that came packaged with Panasonic BQ-CC17 charger, and they are BK-3MCCA models, from updated 4th gen. Label says they’re made in Japan, with 70% of charge after 10 years in the package, looks the real deal. I bought it from a guy who seems to have imported it from the USA, because of the NEMA plug and lack of Euro plug adapter. I thought about buying more Eneloop batteries from the likes of ebay, Aliexpress and Gearbest, but I changed my mind after reading the “Where to buy?” list.

They are now available on Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de and Amazon.it

Also on Amazon.es :wink:
(preorder, available 5 sept.) …but 31 €…… ;-(

Oh, Amazon.de is € 24,82

NKON only 17.95 Euro. :partying_face:

In case anyone is interested, NKON also sells the 2012 Eneloop, which is branded as Sanyo Eneloop (instead of Panasonic). https://www.nkon.nl/rechargeable/aa-size/sanyo-4-aa-eneloop-in-blister-blue-case.html

Cheers. :smiley:

That`s an awesome price!

Yes… pity the shipping costs. Too expensive for me…
I am an eneloop lover but ATM I can not buy.

One question…

I am pretty sure that the 2012 white ones are made in Japan… but… the pack of 8x expedition tones… are made in Japan or China?

Was wondering the same thing. Couldn’t find a picture of the back of the blister where it says where it is made… NKON often mentions whether certain Eneloops are made in Japan, and since they don’t mention it with the Expedition… I doubt it; but no certainty here.

Excellent ! I like it
