GP AA ReCyko+ 2000mAh (Silver-Green)



Official specifications:

  • Nominal voltage: 1.2V
  • Capacity: 2000mAh
  • Rechargeable up to 1000 times

Maximum temperature raise at different discharge currents: 1A:+1,2°C, 2A:+3,1°C, 3A:+5,5°C, 5A:+10,4°C, 7A:+15,8°C, 10A:+21,5°C
GP has decided to brand there chargers and batteries as green and named them accordingly. The batteries is medium capacity.



I got the batteries with a charger, I will also publish a review of it.










The discharge curves looks good.















Conclusion

This looks like good batteries. The LSD properties are accetable, but not the best for this capacity.

Thanks for the review HKJ!

Very similar to Ikea Ladda but for a higher price? In theory you can charge GP 1000 times and Ikea Ladda only 500, but I doubt I ever going to find out if that is true or not :bigsmile:

Thank you for another good review HKJ.

I have older gen ReCyko still in service after 10 years.
GP claimed capacity was 2050mAh when they were new and today my Opus BM100 shows 1600mAh. Not bad.

Mine’s about 5 years but I don’t really use it since I’m in favour of the 1.5v lithium batteries

Yes, those must be the same ReCyko sold everywhere in SEA.
I’m using them in portable speaker and wireless mouse.

Just find out that 1.5V rechargeable lithium batteries exist.

I still don’t know how to use Amazon to ship to Singapore tho!

Me neither :slight_smile:
I think they don’t ship to Malaysia so third party for shipping must be used.
Maybe is better for Singapore.

I’ve seen/heard people do that in Singapore but after I read a how to online but damn it is such a pain

Yup, its not worth it to bother with that… They don’t ship -> I don’t buy from them -> and that’s that :stuck_out_tongue:
