Eneloop - better not go

After many years through various recreational activities a high demand for batteries have (MiniMagLites, WalkyTalky, Hiking GPS devices, LED flashlights, etc.), the differences are very clearly to me noticed.
It tasted much good stuff over the years, especially as the cheap versions are not only cheaper special (on paper) sometimes even come up with a better performance. And driven by the idea I have (unfortunately) already tried several products:
- Cheap no-name products from the Internet with outstanding performance. After a short time it must be noted that the batteries do not comply with the specifications and incredibly fast give up the ghost. From about 50 batteries all but one other defective after more than one year.
- Cheap deals from Lidl: an absolute joke these things. After a few days, the first failed. After 3 months, all are broken. Did not want to replace the substandard goods and Lidl. Was for me so the last time that I here nonfood buy.
- Test winner, after an intensive evaluation of various test results: For my needs, (high performance, low self-discharge less necessary because the I bring almost daily used) I landed at the Texus. Offer very high mAh specification, albeit with quite a high self-discharge. That would be ok, since I knew it, but what's not describe the entire test results here again the result of continuous power / durability. The Texus are very powerful, in fact, fall now but after a year and gradually made.
- Other brand batteries provide very fast on the mind: here the green Grundig
- Share of the durability ago - not necessarily of the self-discharge, I can still see the silver Energizer. Since more than 7 years of service and no mind has given up.

The best ones are and however remain the Sanyo Eneloop. Even if here ausgiebt little more each playing the loose back inside:
- Always ready to use thanks to low self-discharge
- Quality workmanship and not a single loss in more than 50 varieties of batteries AA and AAA
- A further criterion which is indeed scarcely noticed, but in practice is doing very well noticeable is the dimensional accuracy. While Sanyo always easily fit into the battery compartments, I have found with many other models (Grundig and Texus, just so, for example) quite different. Result is that you can very easily hurt the protective strip from the batteries and partially also only be seen exceedingly difficult from the battery compartments. The problem is added in the truest sense of the word when several Battieren side by side must be inserted into the battery compartment.
- Even if the specified performance specification is at best average, it turns out in practice, however, a completely inverted image. Here the Eneloop stand out clearly above the rest. At most, the freshly charged Texus can keep up here. Every time so if I need dependable performance, I push the purely EneloopZs. For non-critical applications at home the weaklings from the remainders of the other vendors come in.

This model is the latest variant of the Eneloops. According to UTG Sanyo begrudge still another letter and called: UTGA
The latest generation of advantages compared to the previous version:
- Charging cycles: 1000> 1500
- Remaining capacity 80% even after 1 year> even after 3 years
- Suitable for up Temperature: 10 minsu 'Celsisu> -20' Celsius
- With normal energy summoned> preloaded with solar power

However, the new are also more expensive to about 50%, which corresponds to the number of charging cycles increased. So about a tie, each charging cycle.

Conclusion:
After many expensive detours I ended up ultimately in this top-quality product. Besides Rander forth, always existing power a reward Eneloops also the lowest cost of use due to the enormous capacity of long charging cycles.
Benefit from my experience expensive and buy the same right.
