thanks for deal OP .. I got the Eneloops from Costo when they were on sale .. love them.

if these live up to the mark then they are a very good price ..

i am tired of buying batteries for my kids toys .. they don't even play until the battery runs out ...

this should be a $$aver...


Can i recharge this with duracell recharger??

If it recharges NiMH, yes.


Use coupon code "momsday" for 10% off. Expires today. I found it here.


I don't know of any that will charge that many cells, but I have a Maha -C801D that charges 8 AA/AAA. I've been very happy with it.


I use the Ansmann 5207123 Energy 16 Charger and love it. It will run you about $80-90 bucks but worth every penny. They do make a smaller one if you don't want to have one that big called the Ansmann Energy 5207442/US 8 Plus Battery Charger. They auto refresh the batteries when needed and can detect bad cells too.

I use these batteries (in this topic) in this charger and they work very well together!

I found and bought them by using this link: http://www.metaefficient.com/rechargeable-batteries/best-recharg...

Ugh.....trying to resist. I already have 16 AA's and 8 AAA's....but of course, who can't use more LSD rechargeables? This makes it a really good deal, especially on the AAA's - they're usually the same price as the AA's, but are half the cost from Hobbypartz. Great deal OP.

Edit: Couldn't resist with the coupon. Just pulled the trigger for 3 packs of AAA's and 4 packs of AA's.

Subtotal: $27.65
Shipping: $4.95
Tax: $0.00
10% savings: -$2.77
Total: $29.83

Works out to about $1.06 per battery - almost half of the typical price I pay for Sanyo or Sony pre-charged batteries.


I am in using sanjosanjo's 10% code and $50 free shipping. Sadly, they charge CA sales tax.

LSD NiMH Rechargerable AAA Battery 1.2v 800 mAh 4 Pieces $2.55 3 $7.65
LSD NiMH Rechargerable AA Battery 1.2v 2200 mAh 4 Pieces $5.00 9 $45.00
Subtotal: $52.65
Shipping: $0.00
Tax: $4.15
10% savings: -$5.27
Total: $51.53


Do I really need more batteries? Probably not, but the 10% coupon (thanks sanjosanjo!) and free shipping was too hard to resist.

absolutely a legit site.


Prices still good. Thank you OP for motivating me to get more rechargables.


Picked up four packs and will compare them long term to my Sanyos. Shipping was fast and I had no problems with the site. Batteries were charged sufficiently to be used right from the pack. Thanks OP.


since momsday expired, mayhp5 works well since its $5 off $55, just where you need to be for FS


Shipping messes it 4 me. Don't want to spend $50 to test these. Without fs no go.


I ran the test function on one AA and one AAA on a La Crosse BC-700:

AA
2350 mAh
1.46 V

AAA
836 mAh
1.46 V

Others have tested and posted results (including myself), but I appreciate your caution.


Legit site. i buy a lot from them. CS isnt the best though. $50 for free shipping or i think its like $5. use to have free shipping on $25. theres also coupon codes out there if you can find one.


Just received my battery order about 2 hours ago. Placed 4 EMB AA batteries into the newly purchased EMB charger. The batteries fully charged in about 35 minutes but the batteries are extremely hot. Is this normal.


Their fast charger runs at 1C, or 2A for a ~2Ah cell. That's a high charging current and I would expect the cells to get very warm. Excessive heat isn't good for batteries as it can break down the electrolyte, plates and/or internal terminal connections. How that affects the battery's life may be debatable but the data I've seen doesn't reflect well on fast charging. I'll stick with the LaCrosse at 1/10C charge rate.


I bought six (6) packages of AAA's and seven (7) packages of AA's since I don't have any low discharge AAA's. I'm going to use the AA's in led flashlights. I opened one pack of each size and I'm charging two of each in a La Crosse BC-900 firmware 33. Three (3) of the 4 EMB's are initially showing 1.33v and other one indicates 1.34v.

The correct code for May is HPMAY5, only good on orders of $55 or more.


nice find on LSD AA/AAAs OP!

Thanks - it had to be all caps. It doesn't work if lowercase.
yeah - for some reasons websites seem averse to the use of any sort of trim() or toUpper() functions on coupon fields.


I can't even add them to my cart. When I add them it still shows nothing in cart. "A problem was encountered when communicating with the server. Please try again".

Maybe, but not in this case. The code hpmay5 works in both CAPS and lower case. You guys just typed it in wrong because the person who posted the code in the first place, posted it incorrectly as mayhp5 which is wrong, the correct code is hpmay5, and works both ways.

You may be right. I tried the all caps you posted and it worked. I didn't realize it was a different order. Thanks for posting the correct code!

I believe I had this problem when I ordered a couple of weeks ago, but only with Firefox on the Mac. Switching to a different browser worked. (Safari on Mac or IE on Windows -- I'm afraid I don't remember which.)


Found this thread too late, but FWIW, a 4-pk of LSD 800 mAh AAA's is $2.55, and the 4-pk of 2200 mAh AA's are still $5.00. S/h was $4.95, still beats anything I found on Amazon hands down.

If you're worried about using this site, checkout with PayPal. Works for me. Thanks OP!


Use coupon code for 5% off.(HPFATHER)


Looks like they decided to bump the prices of all of them up a bit. The 4 pack AA's are a buck more now at $5.99... 5% off isn't going to help much to offset that.

The hotness of the deal is starting to cool.


I was going to place another $50 order, but the price increase has me on hold. Not quite the deal it was...
