What is the difference between the “old” and the “new” improved eneloop?

  • An extra of 500 charging cycles – instead of being rechargeable 1000 times, the new eneloop is even rechargeable up to 1500 times.
  • Improved self-dischcharge. Even though the self discharge of the old eneloop was already very impressive, you can store the new eneloop for 3 years and still it will retain 75% of its capacity.
  • You need a battery, which is reliable even when having cold temperatures? Before eneloop was suitable for temperatures as low as -10°C – now even until -20°C.
  • The new eneloop is even more environment-friendly as it is pre-charged with solar energy in Japan.

Rechargeable up to 1500 times.

Incorporating new technologies for material, manufacturing method and structure developed through the knowledge gained since the first release of eneloop the number of times a battery can be recharged has been increased by the factor 1.5 to approximately 1,500 times compared to the conventional models. With the ability to recharge the battery more times, the new “eneloop” is both more economically competitive and enhanced in environmental awareness as it means the amount of overall battery waste will be reduced.
