Which charger would you buy to charge eneloops and IKEA LADDA? Are the ones sold by IKEA any good?
For my store in Portland, Or sold out online and in store! Lame part is they donât show sold out though until you go to check out. I will miss these and hope Duracell doesnât stop selling their FDK rewraps! I guess LADDAloops are gone forever :cry:
Just get a Vapcell S4 Plus for everything!
Any news of replacement products for the FDK made IKEA Ladda?
They will prpbably replace it with something made in China like Amazon and Duracell and Energizer have done. Cheaper to buy for them, but they charge us the same amount. My guess is itâs getting hard to source the Fujitsu ones or theyâre getting too expensive to buy. LSD nimh batteries arenât cheap to make or buy, and because thereâs one factory in Japan that makes them for Panasonic, and for now, Duracell (some of their 2500mah nimh are made by FDK), they have control over vendor and contracts. Thereâs more factories in China making LSD cells which may not be as good, but the average consumer is blissfully unaware.
I think the new cells are made from metal from the rocket that fell back to earth.
!Spoiler alert!
Just had a talk with an Ikea employee and she told me that the new rechargeables will come in June/July and they will be blue 
This is just an unconfirmed information. But I am interested if itâs true. We will see.
Well, weâll see I guess. Hopefully theyâre as good as the Laddaloops.
thanks maxl96 for the spoiler!
maybe someone can get some details even for us, ya know for peace of mind 
Very sad to hear, but thanks for the heads-up. Picked up a pack of each, though there were lots still available.
Just now placed my order: 4xAA, 2xAAA
hope I get freshly produced ones, last time I ordered from IKEA they were ancient (from when LADDAs came out)
Thought I bought too many, but they have been absorbed quickly.
Got mine 4x4AAA and AA, all 32 made last year, week 42-48 in Japan.
Shipped from Ikea in a box bit smaller than newborn elephant.
Itâs great having Ikea near where I live.
They donât seem to want to do business in my state at all.
I know the feeling! Iâm not sure where all my rechargeable AA and AAAs went, but I shouldâve bought even more the last time I was at IKEA.
I found Ladda's in a state reasonably close to home. No Ikea stores in my home state. After tax & shipping, genuine Japanese Fujitsu AA's were still slightly cheaper from Amazon with free 5-7 day shipping. I don't have Prime.

It doesn't seem to look good with the Laddas. When I heard about the news, I ordered a few more Laddas from the Ikea online store in Germany. That was at the beginning of May, the delivery date was postponed further and further. Now they say end of May should be delivered. But the batteries are displayed all the time as available on the website.
I just got some from the Atlanta store. They ship by mail $5.99
The new laddas are made in Japan and are cheaper than the old Japanese ones. 1900mAh AA, 2450mAh AA and 750mAh AAA. Prices are $6.50, $10 and $6 Australian
My daughter whoâs moving back home for a few months bought 3 packs of the AA Laddaâs for $3.99 each from the Burbank, CA Ikea yesterday. The receipt showed the correct stock number and the correct product description so it wasnât as if it was incorrectly rung up.
Who knows if it was an in-house sale or incorrectly priced by the store. If she has told me earlier I would have had her pick up me some packs too.
Anyone living near Burbank may want to check out the store. She said that they had a lot of the AAâs left.
