CONFIRMED by Coles Employee that they are clearing out the line. Any Coles that still has stock will be doing the same.

AAA's also on clearance at same price: only rated at 850mah though with 1yr retention, 5 year battery life^ - thanks Joxer and lostcm!

Might be more expensive on shelf but should scan at $5.80 - thanks Mischaseb

Grab a bargain!! 2300mah batteries with 5 years battery life*
5 packs left at Turramurra, 9 at Coles Chatswood Westfield (as of 4pm).

Picture is of Turramurra Coles.
Closer pic of battery pack

Edit: Found same batteries at Woolies (full price) for any questions you may have.
AAA (850mah)
AA (2300mah)
Can't remember which charger was being cleared (hopefully someone can chime in here) so I'll link both

Edit: If you are after a decent charger, phunkydude's got you covered

      Great to use for gaming controllers.

      Better for the environment blah blah - also in high drain devices it costs less in the long run.

      well, what do you replace battery with ? …. another battery ?

  • Worf on 02/11/2018 - 18:05

    Are these batteries any good. How do they compare to envelops?

    • pennypincher98 on 02/11/2018 - 18:15
      +5

      To be honest I haven't tried them, but they definitely look like they are worth $5.80 - $1.45 each!
      2300mah capacity seems promising.

      As a reference eneloops are normally $15-$20 when a good deal comes along.

      • Worf on 02/11/2018 - 18:21

        True. My eneloops are rated at 1900mah

    Cheaper than Aldi LSDs… FWIW

      No comparison to LSD though. This isn't an LSD!

      LSD tends to have lower voltage of 1.2v too.

      • bb_hunter on 02/11/2018 - 20:11
        +1

        The packet says pre-charged and holds charge for 1 year so I believe this is LSD and AFAIK all Ni-MH batteries are 1.2V

      • BargainKen on 02/11/2018 - 20:13
        +3

        These are NiMH batteries just like the Aldi and eneloops. Same 1.2v cells. Aldi is $5.99 and that's the regular price. No need to ransack your local Woolies store for a "bargain"

        • toasty on 06/11/2018 - 20:11

          Or your local Coles in this case.

      • WARvault on 02/11/2018 - 20:14
        +1

        They are both ready-for-use-charged from the packet and both use nimh chemistry. Even if it doesn't spell out Low Self Discharge it clearly has low self discharge.

        • Wardaddy on 29/11/2018 - 07:30

          Do the Aldi ones have low self esteem too?

    FYI, AAA variety at the same price are 800mah rated with retention charge for 1 year.

    Both AA and AAA packs say the batteries are made in Japan.

      Surely the planners could come up with a better name than dog swamp?

        Dog swamp sounds more like a suburb near Canberra.

        $25 maxi smart charger with 4x 2000mah aa lsd , not 2300mah

  • henestto on 02/11/2018 - 21:14

    should consider newer and now more affordable lithium ion rechargeable batter 1.5V like Jugee Li-Polymar similar to this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/8pcs-JUGEE1-5v-3000mWh-rechargea… I found them pretty good so far

    • pennypincher98 on 02/11/2018 - 21:18
      +2

      Thanks for your input but $59 for 8 batteries is a bit expensive considering they are coming from Singapore and no local warranty or guarantee (with delivery being as late as January).

      • henestto on 02/11/2018 - 21:23

        yeah a bit more than current Ni-MH but stay longer and most of all perform at the 1.5V for the whole usage is pretty desirable… this is slightly cheaper
        https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/JUGEE-4pcs-3000mwh-1-5v-AA-LI-po… but same overseas sources. only way is ebay refund and/or credit card recharge… sourcing locally is less affordable

        • Tunblor on 02/11/2018 - 21:51

          They are 3000mWh, not mAh. That means these lithiums are lower capacity than the NiMH.

          • elusive on 03/11/2018 - 02:15

            @Tunblor: Still higher, technically. The ones in this post are 1.2 V x 2300 mAh = 2760 mWh.

            But of course this doesn't tell the full story. Needs discharge curves.

  • dcep on 02/11/2018 - 21:23

    aa also 1yr charge retention

    guarantee 5yrs rechargeability

    got the last aa pk from petrie tce qld , still got 3pk aaa on shelf

    wonder if blood pressure monitor provides accurate reading on 1.2v instead of 1.5v alkaline

  • DEvok on 02/11/2018 - 22:40

    This brand is more well known to man than eneloop which is still new to the market, buy them now!

    According to the Choice Magazine AA rechargeable battery review 08/2016 the best (reliable) battery was "Coles Recharge+" score 75%.
    When not including battery cost the "Panasonic Eneloop Pro" would have won, but due to their batteries being almost 4x more expensive than the Coles batteries they were relegated to second place. BTW many people in the comments section seem to use Eneloops as the benchmark for what a good battery should be but the "Panasonic Eneloop Ready to Use" came in second last place. The ALDI "Activ Energy Rechargeable" batteries rated highly also, they came in at 4th place and were recommended by Choice Magazine. Finally the "Energizer Recharge Extreme" the batteries in this deal came in at 5th place and were also recommended by Choice Magazine.

      No luck. I tried that and they said they can’t price match clearance item.
      I am in Perth. Which store did you try?

      • tanastra on 03/11/2018 - 21:21

        Landsdale, show photos and matched. I guess it depends on the person you are dealing with .

          Possible to share the receipt of Bunnings to get a price match? Cheers

                @pennypincher98: I just tried to use my own receipt to price match with office works In osborne park, WA and they can only price beat what is on Bunnings online prices which are cheaper than office works. I might try different store and shows photos of clearance from coles to price beat with office works and you guys might try that way too. Cheers

    The price difference between this deal and Aldi is 19c. One may as well drive to the nearest Aldi.

    When IKEA LADDA 2450 mAh is $7.99 everyday (+ $9 delivery under 12Kg)

    • pennypincher98 on 05/11/2018 - 12:36

      To be honest, I wouldn't think about going to IKEA (nearest one is quite a drive away) for batteries. Same with ALDI, they have cheaper batteries also but don't think to go there as I am almost never shopping there.

      The usual places I'd go is either Bunnings or Big W/Target. I'd only get them at Coles if I realised I needed them while I was there and they were a good price, but I'd probably get the Coles brand lol

  • subywagon on 05/11/2018 - 14:03

    I went into Office Works and asked for the Price Beat and they did it on the spot, very good customer service, managed to get 3x Packs AA and 2x Pack AAA $5.51 a blister pack. Two of the Coles I visited had sold out. Perth WA. Thanks @pennypincher98 and @overule
