Review: Testing Sanyo's Eneloop Rechargeable Battery
I've been working have less waste coming out of the house and so I was trying got find a rechargeable battery that would work well. I found the Sanyo Eneloop that comes charged out of the box and stays charged much longer than the current competition. The pack I purchased includes a charger,AA, AAA batteries. It also includes C and D adapter in which the AA batteries are inserted. I don't think it would last as long as a true C or D, but it could be useful in a pinch. StefanV says they store even better in colder temps like a fridge or freezer, and because of their long energy storage qualities they can work well for long term devices like remote controls and clocks. LT approved.
