Review on BK 3MCA24 CA Eneloop Pre Charged Rechargeable by Tony Crook

We started using eneloop branded batteries over 10 years ago when they were part of SANYO. Panasonic acquired SANYO batteries and continued manufacturing and improving eneloop brand batteries. Our oldest batteries are over 10 years old and still working. These batteries actually retain most of their charge even when stored. We have become so used to these batteries that they now power so many things in the house. I recently bought 24 more AA batteries and the last time I bought them they were in the box. Was it a return? We don't know but we had the correct number and it turns out they weren't already well packaged to prevent them from opening during transit or they may have already been opened. Not wanting to repeat the experience this time I chose to purchase this package which came factory sealed in a box and arrived fully sealed (nothing was loose) which is reassuring. I immediately started charging them before putting them in the wooden box with a plexiglass lid that we keep them in at home. The price was good and what you would expect for them in bulk.
