Default Sanyo eneloop nimh rechargeble batteries...

are just one of the battery manufactors using the newest technology for their rechargeble batteries. Seems a new technology has come about from an independent source and that technology gives the nimhs a much,much longer life to the rechargebles. After reading several independent views on the new batteries it seems very cost effective for the investment.
Also,from one of the reviews/test I read, the Sanyo 2000 mah,1.2 volt battery holds its 1.2 volts much longer than many of the higher mah rated batteries.
I was curious if any of you have used these batteries.
Thus far Ive stuck with energizers,Im afraid to use the oxyrides because of their higher volt rating.
Thanks for the feedback,
and HH,
John
