The Rayovac 4.0's are cheap because they are not eneloops. There's eneloops and there's everything else, and there really is a difference.Fry's has the 4 pack AA 4.0 with "lithium technology" for $4.29 in San Diego. How do these compare to the others like enoloops etc? Also I bought some lsds from Frys a year ago. I dont have the make with me but I think they were a san diego or at least a CA company. So far they have also been doing pretty good in my digital camera. I believe they were $2 or $2.50 each at the time.

And here are the 6-month results:It will be interesting to see what the numbers are for the 6-month test.

Dont worry your not the only one......might have to order some from Batteryjunction.
The Rayovac 4.0 is not as good as Eneloop, but the price is of course very attractive. As the saying goes, "you pays your money and you takes your choice".
I can give you some qualitative statements. A definitive analysis with all the numbers is not really out there. People buy the cells, report back what they find, and gradually a picture is formed.Would you be able to offer some insight to how different they are? Or how I can read the numbers myself so I can tell?
