I am in a search to widen our portfolio of some cheaper yet better-than-ordinary GP (or even no-name) Ni-MH crap, next to Fujitsu's/Eneloops as a quality standard we already have, but for many uses they are still pricy. I just got some samples of the PKCell "Pre-charged" Ni-MH accumulators. They offered me 2600mAh AAs etc., I went for 2000 (but 1000 AAA which are on the high side so I can actually compare how they will go) as I know all these el-cheapo batteries usually hold such high capacity for a short time only, if ever. What I am particularly interested in are their 9V and maybe C/D as Fujitsu is not making those. Got 350mAh 9V sample.
Any experience with these cells? Are they worth it if they cost for example 1/2 of the Eneloop/Fujitsu?
And what charger would you recommend for such testing (some cycling, capacity measurement). Maybe some USB/serial connectivity would be nice so I can watch how it goes…
