Not later than the model name indicates that it is actually to Eneloop batteries. A difference, however, in the number of charging cycles. Here the Amazon batteries to create 1000, whereas the Sanyo batteries provide 1800. Probably is 3UTG (A) batteries, ie the predecessor of the current 3UTGB batteries from Sanyo. I could well imagine that Amazon has contracted the batteries "only" to compete with 1000 charge cycles me.
