Also, for anyone curious, they also have a 10-pack for $20 on sale too should anyone want to save the $2 if 10 is more than enough.

These Eneloops should easily hold their charge better than the Duracells being sold today. In the past, some Duracell NiMH may have been rebranded Eneloops but that's no longer the case. Duracell tends to sell higher capacity NiMH these days, and high capacity NiMH inherently have a higher self-discharge rate.
The Duracells may have a slightly higher capacity but I can virtually guarantee they will have a higher self-discharge rate and a substantially shorter overall/cycle lifespan.
What this means is that some devices will be incapable of running with them due to insufficient voltage, and those that do run might do so at a weaker power. For example, I can't put my eneloops into any of my children's toys because it causes them to go slow and weak if they even start. My front door smart lock won't run on these at all.
Just something to keep in mind when purchasing!

do you need a different charger for Lithium Ion battery? can i use the same NiMH charger to charge Lithium ion battery?(charging)...
Many chargers will reject batteries that I'd still consider perfectly fine, either due to low voltage or rising internal resistance. Make sure the contacts on both the charger and the batteries are clean.
Do NOT use a charger meant only for NiMH with any form of lithium. Some chargers can do multiple types. Be aware, the Lithium-Ion AAs/AAAs need specific (and potentially proprietary) chargers. You should generally only charge them with the charger meant for that specific model. These should NOT be charged with regular Lithium-Ion chargers.
The lifespan depends on the battery and how it's used. Also, higher capacity models will have a significantly shorter lifetime. For regular capacity models (~2000mAh for AAs), I usually see ~10+ years with mild use, even for mediocre brands. With high capacity models, I would expect less than 10 years, even for the best quality, and with light use.

I look back now and feel like I wasted a chunk of my life on games, but honestly made so many real friends, so I think it was worth it. I would play 7 days a week back then and even set my alarm and get up twice a night to farm the Borgle bat cave, lol. I'd set my speeder to /way rori 900 -4935 and then park my character there every night. Made a ton of money off the drops in that cave and farming the Nightsisters with friends during the day. Also sat my alt account, Master Doctor in town and gave buffs for money, back when people lined up for them.
