ENELOOP SPECIFIC FEATURES:

Long-Lasting Memory-Free Power You Can Use Over and Over!

Eneloop is a totally new type of battery, which satisfies in a unique way the needs and expectations of the consumers. eneloop is a combination of a rechargeable and a disposable battery, the next evolutionary step for batteries into the 21st century.

Immediate Use
Like a disposable battery
Because the eneloop has a very low self-discharge, SANYO can ship the batteries to the retailers in a charged state. Also in the shops eneloop loses its charge very slowly. This means the consumer purchases a charged battery, which can be used immediately.
The eneloop is therefore as user-friendly as a disposable battery.

Low self-discharge - the key-advantage
What makes the eneloop unique?
The key-advantage of the eneloop compared to usual rechargeable batteries is its extremely low self-discharge rate.
Once charged, eneloop keeps its charge even if you store it for 6 or 12 months ( 90 per cent of the charge after 6 months, 85 per cent after 12 months ).
For a rechargeable battery this is a revolutionary advantage. No more worries about the state of charge of your battery.
Even after months you will still have an almost full battery.

1000 times rechargeable
In contrast to a disposable battery the eneloop can be charged up to a 1000 times. This saves the environment and your purse. Thus one eneloop saves the waste of 999 disposable batteries.
Even if you consider the slightly higher cost of the eneloop compared to a disposable battery and add the cost for the charger and the energy consumed by the charger, the investment for one eneloop returns easily after a few charging cycles. Imagine how much money you have spent for batteries in your life. Now there is an end to this spending.
