Hi everyone - can anyone recommend a good place to buy some AA Eneloops? By this I mean cheap...! Just done a google search which produced hundreds of results and my post-finals fuzzy head couldn't cope with it

so I thought i'd just ask

A even better buy, just ordered 6 sets

If you pay close attention the Sanyo Eneloops are only 1.2V while the Camlinks are 1.5V with slightly more capacity this is a Carlsberg induced statement and is complete bollocks

LBA is good for you, a Lens a day helps you work, rest and play.

If you look even more closely Brian, you'll see that the Camlink packaging actually says "For 1.5V applications". They are not 1.5V cells, they are 1.2V, just like all NiMh cells. Also, do they have a very low self discharge like the Eneloops which will retain up to 80% of their charge (if unused of course) after one year.

The blurb from Camlink.eu.com and reviews elswhere confirm they are low self discharge like the Eneloops.
