It's interesting to note that these batteries had never been available in Japan with that particular product code. It looks like they were only available in China. Finally, the 5th generation Eneloops were produced, with a minimum capacity of 930mAh for the Eneloop PRO AAA and 2500mAh for the Eneloop PRO AA. This means that when the battery is fully charged, you can keep the battery untouched and the self-discharge rate would only be about 15% in 1 year. More info on charging can be found in our Ultimate Eneloop Charge Guide. The diameter of Pro batteries is larger than regular Eneloops and, therefore, can be a very tight fit in certain devices. So if your standard white Eneloops are a tight fit, don't get the Eneloop Pro. In 2011, Sanyo announced its first high-capacity battery, the Eneloop XX. This was a welcome announcement because Eneloop had been on the market for nearly six years (since November 2015), and only included the standard Eneloops with 1900mAh capacity. (The ones with the white wrappers).Eneloop PRO is excellent for longer battery life in flashlights as well. The capacity of 4 Eneloop Pro AAs is about 25% more than 4 regular AA Eneloops. Standard Eneloops have a longer shelf life. They only lose 30% of their charge in 10 years, while the PRO batteries lose 15% in 1 year. In 2013 Panasonic announced a redesign of the Sanyo-branded Eneloops. In Japan, this led to the removal of the large Eneloop logo, and to be replaced with a large Panasonic logo. Right underneath the Panasonic logo is the following text printed: eneloop rechargeable battery. The product codes changed from HR-3UWX to BK-3HCC for the AA batteries and BK-4HCC for the AAA batteries. In Europe, they are called BK-3HCC E and BK-4HCC E, respectively. So the grey IKEA batteries currently being sold come from the same factory and have almost the same specs. Unfortunately, they don't show all the detailed specifications. If you only have a time-based charger, you shouldn't buy Eneloop PRO batteries. First of all, because the timer duration will likely be set too short, the batteries won't be fully charged. Secondly, if the batteries are still half full, the charger won't stop until the timer has cut the charge. This means that the batteries are charged too long, and likely caused some damage.

To see how the batteries performed, I used an Ansmann Energy XC3000 battery tester. First, I measured the Eneloop AAA’s voltage. I recorded 1.29V, which is above the minimum of 1.2V that I’d expect from AAA cells. The Eneloop PRO is excellent for Camera flashes, flashlights, etc. When you need maximum power or maximum battery life with a high-drain application, this is the battery to get. Inside camera flashes, Eneloop PRO also recycles the flash faster and can, therefore, pop more bursts in a shorter time! The 4th generation AA PRO specifications and the 4th generation AAA PRO batteries. 2015: 5th generation Eneloop PRO This ability to retain charge also means that the Eneloop AAA are a great choice in those scenarios where the ability to hold a charge is more important than capacity. Think of low-drain uses, such as for remote controls.

This is the total amount of pops the flash could make on a set of batteries. This is the average between 2 flash units.. according to Sys. The short answer: the Eneloop Pro battery has a higher capacity than the regular Eneloop with 2500mAh vs. 1900mAh. The Pro can be charged up to 500 times while the regular Eneloop up to 2100 times. The PRO batteries can provide more current than the regular Eneloops. The following results are interesting none the less. The Powerex 2700Pro is also made in Japan, and is to my understanding the equivalent to the all famous Sanyo 2700 and now called Panasonic 2700 (Evolta).
