Can I use these batteries with my Sony charger ? Are these batteries compatible with only the Sanyo eneloop charger or can I use them with any charger for AA batteries ?

According to Sanyo eneloop web site: "Eneloop batteries are not limited to Eneloop chargers or any special proprietory charging technology and can be charged using other quality non-Eneloop Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery chargers." As long as you have a good quality "smart" charger (meaning that it charges each cell individually and stops whenever each cell is full), you can charge the eneloop cells with it. Personally, I would avoid those 15-minute Super-Fast chargers.

I bought this one Rayovac PS3PL Smart Charger AA/AAA/C/D/9V Platinum Universal Battery Charger http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008LY67YA/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0or if you want to use spacers instead of buying C batteries you could buy the eneloop power pack. probably would have to charge the AA batteries a lot more if you use a high drain device. eneloop Super Power Pack, 1800 cycle, 12 AA, 4 AAA, 2 "C" and 2 "D" Spacers, 4 Position Charger, and Storage Case

They work on my Canon 60D. Also, I use Eneloop rechargeable and have no issues with these batteries either in the transceivers or in my flash units.

You actually need to use the Wasabi charger for the Wasabi batteries. OEM batteries will not work with the charger. I think the Wasabi batteries can work with OEM charger though. I haven't tested them yet.

I have used many Sanyo eneloop AA cells in my old Canon S1, new Canon S5, Canon 420EX flash unit, etc. I believe low-self-discharge batteries are idealy suited for digital cameras, especially for intermittent shooting. There are people who claim that ordinary NiMH cells are better because those are rated 2700mAh instead of 2000mAh. But I never have the need to shoot 500 pictures in one day. Plus I keep one set of spare batteries in the camera bag anyway. Ordinary NiMH cells self-discharge so fast, you always have to recharge the batteries just before shooting. Plus there is no point in keeping a spare set because it would become exhausted by the time you need it.

Eneloop's are your regular run-of-the-mill rechargeables, and the Nitecore should be compatible with any AA or AAA rechargeable you give it. I don't see any reason why not.

I want to know the answer to this as well. Can we use the OEM charger for these batteries? Thanks!

Yes, that is what I bought these batteries for. They are both still working great, nice to have 2 batteries - always have a spare. Would recommend getting a separate charger also.

No problem with them. They are a lot better than the original battery that came with my Sony camcorder. Holds a charge longer and also chargers faster. Hope this help's you.

You can use this Sony charger to charge any brand of NiMH/NiCd AA and AAA cells. The capacity is not an issue, as the charger knows when to stop charging when a cell is full.

DANGER: These are NOT rechargeable batteries. The Sanyo Eneloop chargers I've seen are intended for Ni-MH(nickel-metal hydride) rechargeable batteries. It can be dangerous to attempt recharging any kind of batteries in the wrong kind of charger. There are rechargers for alkaline batteries, but I've heard they aren't worth the trouble, and/or are a pain in the neck, and/or are dangerous. -- Why bother - these batteries are really cheap. - Paul

Thanks for posting this question. I just purchased my 1st set of AAA batteries and planned to use them with this charger. I thought they wouldn't fit, started searching online for the solution, found this. I've yet to try it out, but will this evening. Thanks!

Hi ,Usually these types of batteries are used mainly for flashlights but why not , could be used for some type of cameras depending from one model to other .Personally I bought them for some flashlight .I can't tell you which cameras are compatible .

I haven't seen the information that you are talking about, but if you Google AA 18650 eneloop, what comes up is a Sanyo battery charger, that will charge AAA and AA batteries.Simon recommends that you use rechargeable batteries, and that particular brand is supposed to discharge slowly (an issue with rechargeable batteries is that they discharge even when not being used). So I would assume that they are recommending a particular brand of rechargeable battery, rather than saying you can use an AA battery.

You can use any brand of NiMH (nickel-metal hydride) rechargeable batteries with the Sony Cycle Charger, however, I've found that the charger doesn't like high-capacity Duracells. There may be other specific brands/capacities the charger doesn't like.

I believe you can use any AA chargeable batteries. The charger shown here will charge NiMhydride AA batteries.

I'd use LSD rechargeables for sure, since they'll keep their charge. But I would recommend Sanyo Eneloops over these Tenergy batteries, I have had much better luck with them.
