The final voltage is just a deal with me as I bought some powerex AA batteries a couple of years ago. In an 8 pack, I had 2 that were bad cells. The mAh was much less than the others and no matter what charger I used they would not hold a charge to a voltage above around 1.1 to 1.2. They got hot as hell during charging. I had to send them back for replacements.

Yes, I have D and AA Powerex cells too and they are very inconsistent cells. I own Eneloops, Duracells, Tenergy Centuras and Powerex and for consistency in maintaining capacity, I rate them in the same order, with the Eneloops far ahead.

Btw, in your OP, your Lacrosse consistently gives a higher reading than its typical capacity. Personally I’m surprised as my iCharger, C9000 and Opus BT-C 3100 v2.1 always give out lower figures than its typical capacity, even with new Eneloops.

I reran a small sample of batteries through the Opus. I set the charge and discharge at 200ma as that was the closest to the 250ma that I used on the Lacrosse. I tested 2 Eneloops (805mAh and 804mAh), 1 Acculoop (907mAh), and 1 Keyko (763mAh). It’s weird as the Acculoop was in line with the readings from the Lacrosse. The Eneloop and Keyko were lower readings but both within their specifications.

I went looking for Acculoop AA batteries after reading about the AAA ones, but they ones listed are overly expensive.

+1. The AAAs were dirt cheap by comparison. Why?

I have no clue. I asked Robert (Rdana) on ebay and he said that he stopped carrying Accupower because there wasn’t a demand for them, despite them being great cells. He has some AAA but they are about a $1 more than Amazon. He said he is out of the AA and doesn’t plan on ordering any more. They have some AA’s here and here and here

do your acculoops list country of origin?
if japan they might be fdk.
my neighbor bought acculoop d cells for his deer feeders and they were junk.shot in 15 cycles.
