The 5 Ultimate Rechargeable Batteries
Any person who loves gadgets and gizmos know very well that the best friend of these toys is none other than the battery. As long as you have a pack of batteries with you, you can play with your toys for as long as you like. But if you want to be a conscientious gadget user with view for saving the environment, you should go for rechargeable batteries.
Unlike disposable alkaline batteries, rechargeable batteries have a much longer lifespan. Rechargeable batteries are also cost efficient, and so you can expect to generate some savings for using them in the long run.
You can even expect better results if you use the best rechargeable battery brands in the market today. So, what do we believe are the five ultimate rechargeable battery brands that you can buy right now? Here is our list.
1. Hybrio. As its name suggests, Hybrio is a “hybrid” nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) battery, manufactured by Uniross. According to reports, Hybrio has a rating of 2100 mAh or milli Amp hour and has a slow discharging time. These Hybrio cells come pre-charged out of the box. You can recharge a Hybrio cell for up to 500 times and each cell can also hold around 70% of its charge after one year of usage.
2. Eneloop. Eneloop is a NiMH rechargeable battery brand made by Sanyo. This brand of rechargeable batteries also come fully charged out of the box. It has a rating of 2000 mAh but it can be recharged up to 1,000 times. After a year of usage, Eneloop cells can retain as much as 90% of their charge.
