Quite a few battery manufacturers now produce rechargeables, which
discharge much slower than earlier ones. Sanyo were the first, their
slow dischargers are called Eneloop. Uniross's are called Hybrio,
Ansmann's MaxE and so on. As much as I know, these batteries are only
manufactured in AA and AAA size, but there are adapters, so that one
can also use them in devices, which require D cells for instance.

I would like to point out when you use adapters for the AA batteries to make 
them 
fit into something that uses D batteries, you won't have the current or 
capacity 
to run them in Cd players or tape recorders for very long. this concept is 
nothing 
new. I seem to remember a brand called Cyna batteries from about 25 or 30 years 
ago that were adaptable.

While each battery is one and a half volts, the amperage is quite different.

2007-09-19 Thread DJ DOCTOR P
High Garry,
That's exactly what I remember too.
I tried that once, and found that it didn't work to well.
But 20 years ago, this was in a stereo that used a power amp for a car 
stereo system.
It required about 7.2 ampyears of currant and about 18 volts to power it.
Witch came from 10 D batteries.
When I tried to use those adappters, it cooked them.
That only happened because there wasn't enough voltage and or currant.
This portable stereo that I have, is about 15 years old.
It will cook those adappters too especially wen you atempt to play a CD on 
this old thing.
The only reason that I'm still hanging on to it, because it still works.
  John Price.

It really impressed him!
But that was my JVC witch put a powerful 30 watts per channal in to a pare

This was a big boom box, and it was heavy.
But it packed a powerful sound.

RE: new rechargeable ready to go:

2007-09-18 Thread Rick Alfaro
Albert,

Sorry, not following you here.  Do you mean the new Hybrid batteries, and
are you saying they will be $3 per battery?  If you are referring to the new
Hybrid batteries then I can believe the price but if you mean regular NIMH
batteries that have simply been pre-charged before delivering them to
stores, then I don't get it.

--Warmest regards,

for 3 bucks a piece, Duracell is putting their rechargeable line of
batteries in stores next month.  currently, you have to charge them up
before using them.  these will make Xmas. much more fun.

These will last much longer in off mode while charged.  they were never able
to sell them in charged mode.  Other than that, it's all I know.

Ok, sounds like you are talking about the new hybrid batteries then and the
price sounds right for those kind of batteries.  I agree, the new hybrid
batteries are really going to be sweet.  What I am not sure of yet is
whether or not you need a special charger.  Not sure if they can be
recharged on regular NIMH chargers.

a different charger wasn't mentioned in the article, however, another
company from Japan has had the same kind of batteries for close to a year
now.  wish I could remember but it's a major company  that we all have heard
of.

Re: new rechargeable ready to go:

High Albert,
I can remember about 20 years ago Rayovack, if I'm spelling that right, had 
batteries like that.
Even thoe they had special rechargers, you could recharge them with any off 
the shelf recharger.
I wonder if this is the case with these?
   John Price.
