If they are not made in Japan they are not worth buying. Huge quality difference. I have eneloops that are 18 years old that still work great!

There is a specific factory in Japan that Fujitsu now owns (FDK), they make the best NiMH batteries in the world--aka the gold standard. I have some Fujitsu ones. Panasonic licenses out of that factory via Eneloop, so does Ikea. Ikea Ladda are equivalent of Eneloop Pro, so if you have one of those in your hood those are probably the best batteries/price ratio I could ever find. I 100% agree on your statement I have Eneloops over 10 years old still clicking, and EARLY made in Japan Amazon ones before they put them in some nameless factory in the jungle somewhere to the lowest bidder who I am sure employs 100% proper labor standards and environmental disposal.

However at a < buck a battery the Amazon ones if they last 5 years, well I guess that isn't bad and the discharge/IR (Internal resistance) doesn't pop it will be lower lifetime cost than an Eneloop because of the obvious made in a legit factory cost more $$$. With that said a 1 year warranty isn't exactly awe inspiring, at that warranty getting disposable AA seems to be a better deal.

I have had a lot of battery leaks over the years…. Would switching to rechargeable stop that? There should be no leaks for rechargeable right?

NiMH batteries don't tend to leak much, unlike alkalines. I think the only ones I've had leak were well past the point of being useless. That's why I've switched to rechargeables, even for low draw purposes, like remotes and clocks.

These are very unreliable. I bought some high capacity ones before that was on sale and they charge to full really fast but maybe because they don't hold much at all! They run out of charge REALLY fast like worse than many generic alkaline batteries out there.

Now I have been buying IKEA LADDA 2450 mAh and has been very happy with it. An IKEA store is about 2 ½ hr drive from my city but everytime I'm in IKEA, I make sure to buy batteries!
Ikea Ladda is Made in Japan

These are farking garbage that will be trash in less than a year with light use. Get laddas from IKEA instead for not much more.

Mine did not, and the link doesn't mention one. I bought a cheap-ish smart charger that I can use for multiple types of batteries, including 18650s, for my very bright flashlights. It does a great job on these, too.
I'm wondering if the Duracell rechargeable battery charger for AA and AAA would work for these? Are chargers brand specific?

Amazon.com: EBL Rechargeable AAA Batteries (16-Counts) Ready2Charge 1100mAh Ni-MH Battery : Health & Household is the better deal, especially when it is on sale.

I know I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but these are rechargeable batteries. Why does Amazon offer them on subscribe and save? Do they think you'll toss them when they need charging?

They're good batteries, though. I have some I rotate through a 1 cell AAA flashlight I wear on a chain. They don't last like alkaline, but they're easier on the wallet once you recharge them a few times.
that was my first thought too, why do you need to subscribe and save if they are rechargeable?

If you plan to keep them for a decade, then the Japanese ones will be cheaper by far, even at twice the cost. I have yet to see Chinese cells hold up even a fraction as well as the Japanese ones.
I do not consider myself a huge battery user but am also on the rechargeable bandwagon. I have various brands - Eneloop, Energizer, Duracell, Tenergy, etc. I do notice that Eneloop (with some that are at least a decade old - not sure about new Eneloops) are consistent and never have any issues. However, with other brands, I do get one or two flaky ones, where they do not charge right, drain faster on the shelf,..
