    Perfect example of shrinkflation

    • +2

      what's the shrinkage? haven't these always been 4pks?

      edit: oh, less mAh?

    • +1

      Soon they’ll be AAAA’s

  • +1

    Free C&C when you spend $100 or more

    • Wait, you have to pay for C&C if its not $100+?

    • +1

      C&C 10, return 9 while you're there..

  • +7

    Used to be $7 for a while pre covid. Miss those prices

  • +1

    have a bunch of these and work ok.

  • +6

    Use to have the higher capacity ones too

  • +36

    Too much effort to go there to save $2.

    Going to Ikea is a major chord, a lot of walking, queue, and waiting around, chances are you will buy other things that you wouldn't have bought otherwise.

    • +24

      You prefer minor chords?

      • +4

        He prefers darker and sadder chords

        • +6

          He should cheer up, maybe he's an emo kid?

      • +6

        The minor chords really convey the desolation and despair of navigating the showroom floor, with undertones of arguing couples.

        • +1

          And also the melancholy of finding your desired item in a mixed up mess of other similar items

        • The way he was talking I thought he was describing a diminished chord lol

    • Depends how far away you live, like anything. If it's your local, it's much faster than KMart because it's so much easier to find things.

      • -1

        What? Much faster than KMart? You have very different experiences to me at both KMart and IKEA

        … yes I regularly find KMart's layout and finding stuff a bit strange, but I usually just ask someone … oh wait, I recall now they often don't know themselves… but am always in there less time then IKEA but granted it is not my local so I spend more time looking around

      Your comment struck a chore with me

  • can you use these in solar lights?

    • +1

      Only if the size matches and the original battery is nicd or nimh chemistry. Most solar lights I have seen are AA and low capacity compared to these

      • +1

        I just pulled some Xmas ones apart, and I was blown-away to a 100mah AA battery. Weighs like a piece of paper. Put it in the nitecore charger, give it a hit. Fully charged in like 1min HA.

        • Often the solar cells are so anaemic they cant put oit more energy inba day anyway.
          Overkill to cook a good cell in there.

          Depends on use case - if they come on very seldom and PV panel is in full sunlight them bigger cell may benefit.

    • +2

      Yes, and I would recommend changing the ones that come with those lights as they are complete garbage and have capacities that you can't even buy in store for how low they are (eg 150mAh-350mAh)

    • +1

      Depends on what type of rechargeable is in there now

  • +2

    Yeah they're shrinking.

    Hope EBL doesn't go this route, AAA 1100mah for ~$2 each is my lifeline whenever I buy more lights.

    • +1

      Amazon has them 4 for $11 delivered… The Amazon Basics AAA review well too

      • Hopefully we have will match

      • Link?

          • @neo: Thanks, review looks good.
            It is a pity they are not low discharge.

            • @Jessie Ryder: Under about this item it says: "Low self-discharge batteries will remain 85% juice when you leaving it for no use 1 year" and also shows "low self-discharge" on the batteries themselves. I've never bought or used them but looks like they are LSD.

              • @Evil-Elmo: Yeah, I saw that but the reviews are saying no

                https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3n_xSq2rbY

                • -2

                  @Jessie Ryder: EBL has lower capacity than claimed, and also terrible self discharge definitely NOT LSD

                  • @muppet: The reviews are pretty positive for capacity tbh, as I posted above they are not LSD though.

                    • -1

                      @Jessie Ryder: Good luck. I have at least 16 of these EBL batteries (AA). None of them measured to the capacity. 2800mah claimed, 2100 measured. I would've forgiven them had they been LSD.

                      • +1

                        @muppet: lol, I'm only going by the YT reviews from the tech guys, they also did capacity tests and they seems to be 5% +/- which is pretty goof for that price.

      • +1

        What kind of brand is EBL? I've not seen before.

    • These are different and will hold charge longer 70% to 10 years like the normal white eneloops instead of the 900mah which are like the eneloop pros drain to 85% in just a year.

  • +4

    Yikes 750mah.

    I missed the 900mah version.

    • +4

      These degrade less will last longer and be better in the long run which is better if your not using it for high power items.

      • you're*

    • Which ones?

      • +5

        What he means is that when they moved from 900mAh to 750mAh, the total cycles they were good for increased. You can see this on the back of the pack as a number with two arrow around it in an oval shape. I think they went from 500 cycles to 1000

  • Can anyone recommend a smart charger for 18650 batteries?

    I have the Maha C9000 which is amazing but sadly doesn't do 18650 or bigger.

      • Where to buy it and which model?
        Link please. thank you.

        • aliexpress is where i got mine

          as far as which model it depends on your needs and wants, i got the m4s and that does well for me, but there are plenty more that do well.

    • +1

      ISDT C4 I believe will do the trick

    • +1

      I have been using Nitecore Intellicharger Battery Charger and had it for 3yrs now and still going strong (i4 IntelliCharger).

      • I already have a D4 but I wanted something with a break-in style charge to try recover some 18650's from an 18V power tool. The D4 just says ERR

        • What brand battery? Aren’t they hard-soldered/welded tabs?

  • +1

    omg yess been after AAA for the longest time. thanks for sharing op!

    Aldi rechargeable cheaper per mAh

    • +2

      I never see ALDI ones in store anymore. Gone to like 4-5 different stores over time and they only have the Alkaline ones.

      Plus, these are made in Japan and are basically cheaper Eneloops.

      • +2

        Yeah, Aldi rechargeables have been gone for a while now. I remember reading many negative reviews on their rechargeables.

        • +1

          ALDI one leaked and destroyed my Mi motion sensor light. :(

          eneloop one still holding strong

    • +1

      I find the IKEA last longer then aldi branded

    • +1

      I still have a few Aldi rechargeables the kids use in their Xbox controllers. However they are gradually failing and I've replaced them with the IKEA batts. Seem to be much better quality.

      • The Aldi ones are terrible - the AAAs are really weak, and don't last long at all.

        Ikea/Eneloop all the way

  • Bought an electronic soap dispenser over the weekend and found that none of my AAA rechargeables would let it work (LADDA, Eneloops) - it'll light up and make a sound but not dispense any soap.

    Using regular non-rechargeable batteries works fine - makes me wonder if the 1.2v of rechargeable batteries I have vs the 1.5v of the non-rechargeable ones is making a difference.

    Anyone know of any 1.5v rechargeables? So far its the only devices in my house that haven't liked rechargeables.

    • +3

      Unfortunately all nickel based batteries are 1.2V. There are no "1.5V" rechargables. As I've said below:

      Alkaline batteries slowly discharge to 1.0V. At about 40-60% of their capacity their voltage is 1.2V.
      Thats why 99% of the time rechargables work in all devices that use disposable batteries.

      Fresh NiMh batteries are 1.5V open circuit. Maybe in your case you've unfortunately got a very picky device.

      • I thought NiZn batteries go up to 1.6V!!

    • +1

      I'm not smart enough to understand why, but apparently there's some fundamental limitation that means you can't have 1.5V AND have it be a rechargeable AA.

      It's frustrating because as much as other comments say it's mostly fine, we keep receiving kids toys that only work with 1.5V. Our ceiling fan remotes only with with 1.5V.

    • Maybe you'll have to get some lithium's

  • whats the point of their 1.2V ratings when all disposable batteries ive used have been 1.5V?

    • +3

      These work fine for 80-90% of normal use cases. Plus the ole not contributing to landfill and saving money pros. I don't think I have bought an Alkaline battery for over 25 years.

    • +4

      Different chemistries.
      Alkaline batteries slowly discharge to 1.0V. At about 40-60% of their capacity their voltage is 1.2V.
      Thats why 99% of the time rechargables work in all devices that use disposable batteries.

    • If you want something with more points maybe get those rechargeable lithium AAs. They have a flat 1.5V output with the built in step down converter.

    I bought a $100 IKEA voucher in June in anticipation of a sale to switch to rechargeables. I've had a price monitor going for months now which alerted me to this a few days ago. Was hoping for close to half price (like last year as someone mentioned above) to make the voucher go further. What a disappointment.

    • +1

      Thanks for posting a couple of days ago…….

      • -2

        It was actually 4 days ago and you're most welcome. I don't post non-deals - $2 savings with IKEA Family anyone?

        • 89 upvotes is hardly a non-deal

          • @Jessie Ryder: $2 of savings and restricted to membership holders (not mentioned). Whereas this item was previously discounted regularly prior to this year, including higher capacity versions for less. There's also no AAs on sale making this a mediocre promo. You should know by now + votes are not necessarily indicative of a good deal.

            • -1

              @Techie4066: If you posted it, it would have been the best deal you have posted.
              99 now.

  • C&C not free for me, showing $5, am I missing something?

    • +1

      Removed that part. Free in-store

  • Can these be used in Christmas solar lights? I have some from Bunnings, it doesn’t charge any more, might just need to replace the battery inside.

    • +1

      Yes.

  • Did they stop selling the 900 AAA's or they just out of stock? The 2450 AA's weren't shown on the website for a while some time ago but they were eventually brought back.

    • +1

      Stopped

  • LADDA or Eneloop?

    • +1

      LADDA 900mAh and 2450mAh are Eneloop
      Last pack was made in Japan

      • +2

        LADDA 750mAh and Eneloop 800mAh

    • +1

      Envelope is 800 and ladda is 750. Envelope pro is like 950

      • WTF is Envelope?
        Is that a Chinese knockoff?

        • +2

          No, Chinese knock off is Antelope.

  • Newbie question….Can I charge the Ladda using my panasonic eneloop charger?

    • +1

      All NiMH chargers work with all NiMH.

      Eneloop and Ladda are based on NiMH cells.

      • @skillet, thanks for that. by that logic this generic batteries can also be charged with panasonic eneloop charger. Still checking reviews on these.

        https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/142851934801?hash=item2142a38a51…

        • +1

          To be precise, Generic NiMH batteries. Don't waste your money on those BTY cells. I wasted enough time & money on those cells I know what they are like.

          Recharging isn't very enjoyable process so you want the best cell possible. Those cheap cells are false economy and actually harmful to the environment. They may perform very well for the first year or so then deteriorate quickly.
