You won't get that 14000mAh unless you run two of those cells in parallel. So up to 1.4 volts, or so with 14000mA's. Two of those cells in series would be up to 2.8 volts or so with 7000mAh.

I am comparing mah per dollar.Once the cell gets low just swap it out for another.:D
 
I would avoid attaching potential future prices to these products. It will end up being a distraction in the long run. Money is not a constant. I could elaborate but then...you know...

Re: SANYO Announces C- and D-sized ‘eneloop’ Batteries

Nice work Bones, thanks :)

metlarules, before you jump to conclusions ....

Prices in US are often lower. For instance, he lists 4 AAs @ $13.62
while I bought them from TD on sale for $9.97, or 27% discount

So D eneloop @ $15.47 discounted to US level would be $11.30 for 5.7Ah

Hmmmmm

So I can get 8Ah from 4AA package for a buck less. sigh :(
It is just so hard to justify D format cells with so much better pricing for AAs.
 
Even at $10 a cell it's expensive for 5.7mah. Don't get me wrong I'm sure Sanyo will put out a quality product.It's just that I will save my money until they increase the capacity to at least 10 mah.
 
I've just noticed what may actually be some good news about the capacity of the Eneloop C & D cells.

The e-life-sanyo.com site lists all the Eneloop cell capacities at their minimum instead of typical capacity, ie: 750mAh instead of 800mAh for the AAA cell:

If this analogy holds, then the typical capacity of the D cell would probably exceed 6000mAh and, more importantly, should never fall below 5700mAh:

Interesting...

PS: Also just in, Eneloop C & D cell and Universal Charger pricing report in post 64.

Well, that means now i am very much convinced that the D-cell will only be 3AAs in a filler casing. With the spare few mm in height filled with the PTC-element.
Why should they develope a new production process if they can just reuse their current parts for _exactly_ the same device properties?
 
It's too suspicious, isn't it?

Min capacity for AA = 1900 mAh.
Min capacity for D = 5700 mAh.

3 x 1900 mAh = 5700 mAh.
 
Looks like someone will need to 'Operate' :grin2: once these become available.
 
Well someone's going to do it. And it really does look like we can guess what will be inside.
 
So, does anybody currently make a 3AA-to-D adapter shell that configures the cells in parallel instead of series? If not, why not? If so, it must be hella cheaper than one of these "new" Eneloop D cells. Wouldn't mind having a few adapters like this to use with my AA's as backup to my PowerEx D cells.
 
This is starting to smell like the Energizer nimh d cell with 2500mah:rolleyes:only with 3 aa cells.
