Thanks for sharing your ‘Eneloop Story’, it’s a great one.

My ‘Eneloop Story’, from another thread; is copied & pasted below.

Which Rechargeable Battery is the Best? Let's find out!

I just bought some Amazon Basics & LADDA’s to try them out. BUT, they have a ’long row to hoe’ to be as good as the regular white Eneloops. I have Eneloops that I first bought in 2006 that are still going strong. One 4 pack with a 2006 date code was bought at WalMart on closeout in June 2007. Somehow, still in the WalMart bag with receipt; they were “lost” under the truck seat. I found them November 2011. I figured they were ‘toast’ after being lost for 52 months …

I have Eneloops that I first bought in 2006 that are still going strong.

One 4 pack with a 2006 date code was bought at WalMart on closeout in June 2007. Somehow, still in the WalMart bag with receipt; they were “lost” under the truck seat. I found them November 2011. :person_facepalming:

I figured they were ‘toast’ after being lost for 52 months under the seat in hot of summer & cold of winter for that long.

Much to my complete surprise they still contained probably at least 80% of their charge. That is a guess as I did not have an analyzing charger at that time. But I did run a couple AA MagLites for several hours off them. Then charged them up & they are still going strong to this day.

I was sold at that point. It has been Eneloops for me since that day. :+1:

And I have bought a bunch through the years.
