next-generation nickel metal hydride battery ‘eneloop’ 4pk AA NiMh
2000 mah batteries.<br>
<br>
Batteries have a property to release the stored energy in small amounts (this
phenomenon is called ‘self-discharge’). This property is
particularly noticeable in rechargeable batteries such as Nickel Metal Hydride
Batteries etc. as compared to dry cell batteries, hence disabling rechargeable
batteries from becoming batteries that ‘customers can use immediately
after purchase’. For this reason, rechargeable batteries couldn’t
be used unless charged after purchase and so lagged behind dry cells in
convenience. This new product’s main property is that it has introduced
great improvements in self-discharge properties (residual ratio after one year
of non use is 85%*4, in temperature conditions of 20 degree Celsius according
to SANYO research). Through this breakthrough development, SANYO has realized a
rechargeable battery that can challenge dry cell batteries in user-friendliness
through features such as making possible use immediately after purchase or once
charged, its ability to be used anytime.</span></font></p>
