What is an Eneloop Battery?
Thanks for posting this. I was thinking of buying eneloops from Amazoon, but this is a better deal. Hope they stock them near me.
good deal these usually run for about $10 fora 4 pack of AA , these aren't the regular rechargables which lose all there charge in a couple of weeks after you charge them, you can store thse for up to a year while losing only about 20% of their charge. so you can charge and store these for whenever you need them
One of the best features of the Eneloops is their ability to output high current compared to some rechargables. This is great for fast refresh rates of high drain devices like camera flashes. These seem to easily keep up with Duracell 2650mah batteries I purchased. The total reserve isn't quite as high (as checked with a maha9000 charger), but the output is just as capable or even moreso than the Duracell (which is no slouch).
So one would have to be a costco member to get in on this?
Can I use the eneloop battery charger to charge a duracell nimh 2650 mAh battery ?
Eneloop's are very nice rechargeables. i noticed the other forum mentions not all costcos are involved.
The information I received suggested that this was a test with only a few Costco stores.
The actual stores that are supposed to be involved include:
Costco Durham, 1510 N. Pointe Dr, Durham, NC 27705
Costco Folsom, 1800 Cavitt Court, Folsom, CA 95630
Costco Burbank, 1051 Burbank Blvd, Burbank, CA 91506
Costco Cranberry, 1050 Cranberry Square Dr., Cranberry Township, PA 16066
Costco St. Louis Park, 5801 W. 16th St, St Louis Park, MN 55416
Costco Burlington, 1725 S. Burlington Blvd, Burlington, WA 98233
Costco Sonterra Park, 1201 N FM 1604 East, San Antonio, TX 78232
Costco Douglas County, 8686 Park Meadows Ctr Dr. Littleton, CO 80124

Calling a few random Costco stores on the West coast shows that they are all expecting their shipments to arrive within the next 2-3 weeks. I think the "test" is over; they all showed the SKU number in their systems and gave me availability dates.

Find yourself a better deal online.
Thanks OP. Hopefully the batteries will be sold nationwide shortly - I'm definitely going to grab some.
Awesome, these batteries are great. They work much better than my 2650mAh duracells, which discharge to almost nothing in a week.
This might not work with the costco package, but there's a free battery tester (pdf link) with the purchase of an eneloop charger.

u're wasting everyone's energy by making such a post.
Oh man, at this price, it's alot cheaper to just buy a couple of this battery pack than buying individual batteries or even the 8pack AAs from Amazon.

it is us 8 at WalMart store and .com for 4 AA

I bought them. Been using them in my Canon A630 for a few weeks now and they're still working great. Didn't even charge them before I popped them in the camera. It's clear (IMO) that it's a rebranded Eneloop battery.

I don't know that it's "pretty clear" that they are rebranded eneloops unless you know something I haven't read. Please explain your info.
How long does it take to fully recharge these batteries?
Where would these be located in the store?
As for those who are as confused as i am, but cannot be pushed to read the other thread: Eneloops can be charged in regular chargers as well.
Thnaks OP.
