The fifth generation of top-of-the-line Panasonic Eneloop AA rechargeable batteries (formerly Sanyo Eneloop) with an extended lifespan of up to 2,100 recharge cycles, a minimum capacity of 2000 mAh, and even lower self-discharge. Panasonic Eneloop batteries come pre-charged from the factory and can be used immediately.

Thanks to extremely low self-discharge, they retain up to 90% of their energy after one year of storage and up to 70% after ten years of storage. You'll never find your batteries dead a month after charging again! Due to their very low internal resistance, these pre-charged batteries can consistently deliver very high currents, making them suitable for devices like camera flashes.

Another feature of Eneloop batteries is that they maintain a higher voltage under load than standard NiMH batteries. This is important in devices sensitive to low battery voltage, such as digital cameras. Compared to standard NiMH batteries, the new Eneloops perform significantly better in cold conditions and work well even at temperatures of -20°C.

Panasonic Eneloops can fully replace disposable alkaline batteries even in low-drain devices (alarm clocks, remote controls...). These rechargeable batteries are suitable for all high-drain flashlights that use AA batteries. They are suitable, for example, for Fenix flashlights like the E12, E20 V2.0, LD12R, LD22, LD42, CL23, or headlamps such as the HM23, HM23 V2.0, HL30, HL50, and HP16R.
