Their two-and-a-half-hour flashlight run time was at the top of the range as well, and the 10-hour toy car run time was only 10 minutes shy of the best overall result from the HiQuick NiMH AA. With an average tested capacity of 2,409mAh, you’re getting nearly as much capacity as our top pick, the Panasonic Eneloop Pro. The Ladda Rechargeable Batteries are sold by Ikea, and their impressive capacity, low price and included wall charger make for a great value.

The best budget rechargeable battery: Ladda AA, 4-Pack With Charger The fixed plug of the Ladda, for example, means the charger remains 2 inches deep, taking up more space when you put it away in a drawer. The Eneloop charger is also compatible with AAA batteries, saving you the trouble of buying another charger should you need to invest in the smaller batteries, and thanks to its flip-out power plug, it takes up minimal space when it’s not being used.

I find these to be much more helpful than typical chargers that only switch LED colors when the battery is completely charged, letting you immediately differentiate completely dead batteries from nearly full ones, instead of having to wait 10 minutes for it to switch from red to green. LEDs above each slot change colors to indicate the current battery level, from red (20% or less) to orange (20% to 80%) to green (80% or more).

The Panasonic Eneloop Pro isn’t cheap, but you’re also getting a really nice BQ-CC55 charger, which helps add to the overall value. It also powered a motorized car with light-up LEDS for a whopping nine hours and 40 minutes, just 30 minutes short of the top performer in that category, the HiQuick NiMH AA, which delivered a dismal one-hour-and-40-minute flashlight run time. The Panasonic Eneloop Pro also performed well in my real-world run time tests and powered a flashlight (set to “high” power mode) for two hours and 30 minutes before fading out, the longest of any NiMH battery I tested. All rechargeable NiMH batteries suffer some reduction in capacity over time, so the fact that the Eneloop Pro is a capacity overachiever out of the box bodes well for its ability to deliver the mAh you need down the line, even after many use cycles. After I ran it through three complete charging/discharging cycles, the average capacity was actually higher than the advertised 2,550mAh, coming in at 2,596mAh. Out of all the nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries I tested, the Panasonic Eneloop Pro provides the best combination of high capacity and long run time. Your CNN account Log in to your CNN account
