Hi I bought a five pack of eneloop AAAs(8,66€), because I had no AAAs rechargeables.
After charging I have done a discharge test with B6 and at 1A until 0.9V I get around 600mAh
I haven’t tested all and not multiple times but I am confused a bit…
Is this a average result? I am confused because I counted with 700mAh…
Capacities are based on a 0.2C discharge, after a 16 hour charge at a rate of 0.1C. Under these conditions, all the AAA Eneloops I have tested (16 in total) exceed 800mAh.
I need 4 batteries for my marine VHF. I was looking at eneloop XX (newest gen), but then I found a review which stated that the XX have a slightly less voltage than the regular ones. My original battery is 6.0 volts, in any case I can’t achieve that with NiMh batteries.
Now I’m wondering, should I go for the slightly higher voltage regular eneloops, or should I choose the XX with their less voltage but 25% more capacity and almost twice the price? What do you think?
Seems that my i4 isn’t able to charge them properly, strange as my experience with AAs said that all cells were charged nice with it…
I have done a 5cycle test with my B6 with 0.6A charge 5min rest 1A discharge and I got continuously 720mAh out of this torture…so the cells seem to be in good condition.
Hey guys. Sorry for sounding like an idiot but I just purchased a AA XX set with charger from Amazon and noticed that their part number illustrates that they are from the first generation eneloops (3UWXA) they also have the 4 ventilation holes. But the weird thing is the production date on the battery shows they are produced on 13-04 OC. Can someone shed done light on me please.
