Kodak Pre-Charged AA's...Any Good (vs Eneloop)???

[dr150]

Walmart is selling the Kodak Pre-charged 2100 maH AA's for $7.88.

Anybody have any experience with these and how they compare to the Sanyo Eneloops.

It's 2100 maH, so does that mean they could be repackaged RayOvacs???........

What's interesting is it "appears" like Kodak may have two versions of the Pre-charged batteries. I brought it up in another thread, I've seen a "up to" 2500mah print on one package and "up to" 2100mah on another. The higher mah had a different color battery wrapper. The lower rated one is the one shown in your Walmart link (white).

I'll have to check, but I don't believe that the 2500's are being sold as precharged. I believe they are only being sold as standard NiMh.

I found the 2500's on Kodak's site, but not the low discharge 2100s.
There is no mention of the 2500s being low self discharge.
Kodak 2500s

I could have sworn I saw them (2500mah Pre-charged) at the stores, I am very tempted to grab one. Then I can snap a pic and post it here. The only thing I am beginning to wonder is if it was a packaging misprint but then the wrapper was a different color. Kodak's press release didn't state a 2500mah Pre-charged battery, just a 2100mah one.

I'll have to check, but I don't believe that the 2500's are being sold as precharged. I believe they are only being sold as standard NiMh.

Took a closer look at the 2500mah Kodaks and yep, I was mistaken, they are the standard nimh rechargeable ones, not the LSD batteries I had hoped for. Tricky as the packaging is almost identical to the LSD batts.

I wonder if the 2100 low discharge Kodak batts sold at Walmart are rebranded Rayovacs.

Comments?.......

No. See here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LNI5VC/?tag=cpf0b6-20

I think Titanium LSD are the same as Rayovac Hybrids. I wonder of Hybrios are the same, but I have no way to compare.
