Yes, of course. Just charge normally. Some smart chargers won’t charge them because of the low voltage (error warning) so you might have to put them in dumb charger for a minute or two.
I have many NiMH that have drained to 0V and i have recharged them successfully (not eneloop yet)
I have a BC700 smart charger that won’t take 0V batteries so i have to put them in a dumb charger for 30 seconds so they register enough voltage that the BC700 recognizes them.
How did you get he battery so low, most of mine self discharged but an eneloop should take a decade or more to discharge from full to empty
That is great to know, I held off buying an 8 pack of AA eneloops because they would be going in a trail cam… that I often forget to check at reasonable intervals.
As long as they last 5-6 recharges they’re cheaper than alkaline.
I have no AA or AAA lights, hence my interest, i have lots of eneloops that are used in other devices so i figure better to get an AA light, NiMH is a lot more durable then li ion batteries.
If i understand correctly over discharging NiMH will lead to reduced cycles and faster self discharge, but you should still get many, many times more then 5 or 6 recharges, if you get less then 100 it would be shocking
