rechargeable batteries

http://www.batterycity.ie/sanyo-eneloop ... es-uk-plug

lads been looking at these but look at the bloody charging times,,surely with that time thats needed for a recharge it would affect the electricity bill

also it says capacity that is 2000 mah,,does that mean 1 battery is 2000 or 4 batteries are 2000

bought these last year from7dayshop, read the reviews, I'm not impressed...

sorry bought what.

bought these SANYO eneloop AAA batteries from 7dayshop as it was a special, they came in a pack with a charger and adaptors for all other sizes, unfortunately it takes forever to charge them and they don't hold the promised output voltage or load. I tested them with proper equipment and readings were well below stated specifications. Too expensive anyway, I stick to the DX batteries from now on. At least they are LiIon's and have no memory, no matter how bad you treat them.

Sanyo Eneloops are the bogs dollox when it comes to rechargeables. I've four sets of four for my camera flash units and yes they take a while to charge but they'll keep going all day.

im still a bit confused on what to go for,,sanyo or not,,just dont like the idea of 12-13 hours of charging tbh

thanks all for the replies on this topic

i recieved my headlight in the post in perfect condition to realise that the batteries that i needed where way way bigger than the ones i thought

The 18650 is a 3.7V cell, so it is a much better fit for the newer 5W and 10W X5 Cree LEDS....

Sounds like your sorted

For 13 eur it sounds like you'll be buying a new headlight in a month!

Sounds too good to be true, it usually is, but I hope you get many hours of light!
