Review: Eneloop Rechargeable Batteries

The makers of Sanyo Eneloop rechargeable batteries aim to end your battery hassles with long life, long charge, rechargeable batteries that are ready to use the minute that you open the package.

Picture this, you are jamming to the tunes on your MP3 player, dancing around your house, and really getting your clean on. Then, disaster strikes. Silence. Your favorite song is cut short. Your triple A batteries are dead. Rather than mourn the loss, you spring into action, and run to the junk drawer only to be met with a dozen batteries of questionable levels of charge. With the high price of batteries, you never throw any out until you are positive that they are completely out. But now, as you try breathlessly to get your tunes back up and running, you find that they are all most definitely dead. Then behold, you find an unopened pack of rechargeable batteries that you bought in a fit of brilliance. You pop them into your MP3 player and wait. Silence once again fills your ears. Realizing your mistake you groan, because you know that you will have to charge these a full twenty-four hours before they can be used. No music and no cleaning. Disaster. All this could have been avoided if you had only know about Sanyo's Eneloop rechargeable batteries.

If this sounds like something that could happen to you, then you should definitely look into investing in a supply of Eneloop rechargeable batteries. These batteries are the talk of tech circles everywhere. Though they have been around for several years, mass marketing in the United States just began recently.

The advantages of using this product are great when compared to other rechargeable batteries. The Sanyo Eneloop batteries are more environmentally friendly due to being rechargeable up to one thousand times, and last significantly longer than most rechargeable batteries on the market. They are able to power high powered and high drain devices as they are NiMH batteries, and function in temperatures as low as fourteen degrees Fahrenheit. They keep their charge for more than a year (only losing minimal charge), whereas most other batteries cannot last that long. Best of all, they come ready to use right out of the package (for all your MP3 player emergencies).

Although, the batteries can be hard to find, you can purchase Sanyo's Eneloop rechargeable batteries at the online store "Batteries and Butter" (at www.batteriesandbutter.com). The price is a bit steep, but due to the long life and long chargeability can be considered an investment. The prices range anywhere between six dollars to twenty dollars for the various sizes available.

If you are looking for a great alternative to mainstream alkaline and rechargeable batteries, Sanyo's Eneloop rechargeable batteries are worth a try. So, find a pack, pop them in, and get the music going and your cleaning done.
