GP AAA ReCyklo+ 800mAh (Silver-Green)



Official specifications:

  • Nominal voltage: 1.2 volt
  • Minimum capacity: 800mAh
  • Low self discharge: 24 months remaining percent depends on conditions.



Maximum temperature raise at different discharge currents: 1A:+2,2°C, 2A:+5,3°C, 3A:+8,4°C, 5A:+13,7°C
GP has decided to brand there chargers and batteries as green and named them accordingly. I am not very impressed with the LSD specifications, it would have been nice if they have specified how much to expect in the cells after 2 years.











The discharge curves looks nice, except 5A is too much for the cells.















Conclusion

The cells looks good, but I will not expect too much of the LSD capabilities (probably good enough for normal usage).

i have a couple of these working in some double AAA lights, it performs similar to the energizers, but not as good as eneloops. Thanks a lot for the review.
