Energizer AA AAA Rechargeable NiMH Battery Kit w/ Charger @Costco In-Store Only $22.99+Tax
Item# 1592085 Energizer AA AAA Rechargeable NiMH Battery Kit w/ Charger @Costco In-Store Only $22.99+Tax
Price was reduced to $12.99 through 12/10, now back to regular price $22.99
6 x AA 2300mAh
4 x AAA 800mAh
Charge rates on the charger are pretty HIGH @ 2500mA for AA's, and 1000mA for AAA's. Trickle charge is 50mA for AA's, and 20mA for AAA's. For me these rates are MUCH TO HIGH
.
I would not use any higher charge rate than half the rating of the cell. HEAT KILLS! I would use ~500mA for the AA's, and ~200mA for the AAA's.
Rapid "1 Hr. Charger," 60mins or less to charge to capacity. Will charge 1-4 cells at a time.

+1 for Eneloop. They are FAR superior to Energizer. Not only do they hold their charge much longer (over 1 year vs several weeks in TV remotes), they are much more durable for recharge cycles. Roughly half of my Energizer batteries died after a few charge cycles on my Powerex charger; zero failures for Eneloop.
There are 2 kinds of NiMH rechargeable, the traditional or LSD (low self discharge).
Eneloop was created by Sanyo as a brand for LSD batteries only.
Energizer also has LSD which usually said "pre-charged" on the package so it's available for immediate use.
Since this Energizer doesn't say pre-charged, so I assume it's not LSD
Traditional one is great for frequently used and high discharge like camera flash, RC cars and etc that require charging often, so holding charge for months is not relevant.
They're generally either high capacity, cheaper or more recharging cycles
LSD is good for lower discharging devices or stocking up for latter use.
Buy the cheaper ones that suit your purpose. If same price and same capacity, of course LSD is better buy.
However, I'd rather use the $1 for 4 AA/AAA Alkaline for TV remotes (50c for years) rather than much more costly NiMH and risking overdischarging and ruining batteries permanently.
My recent favorites are rechargeable Lithium batteries (not to be used high discharged devices though), true 1.5V to compatible with all AA/AAA electronics and can be pre-charged to hold charge for many months like LSD

I am buying these for devices where I do not want damaged from leakage, I usually buy the 1900mAh ones. I do not mind recharging them since these devices consume very little power. Perfer to have more batteries than longer life between charges.

I just wish someone would come up with AA battery that is closer to the 1.5V spec, rather than the 1.2V that NiMH's produce.

I do go and ask them every so often when I shop but they haven't had it for over a year. I was once told it's kind of a seasonal thing. So it's not stocked year round.
I'd make a dedicated trip if I knew it's available. I need at least 8-10 AA batteries.

My city has a place to take used batteries and electronics. Hopefully your city does too. Electronics recycling keeps them out of the landfills
