Battery Deals & Offers

Camels show they are regularly cheaper....and dearer of course! Will watch them for a while and bite at £12 mark. They have been as low as £10.99. Good find thank you.

3 for £2.19 here (including prime delivery) : https://www.amazon.co.uk/Super-Heavy-Duty-Battery-Poundmax/dp/B01H99WJU8

Great deal! only about £1 a battery

To be honest, I'm not sure... I just know that the ones I've got are cheaper and industrial (if that makes any difference???) to the standard ones

Cheers

Heat I purchased 3 packs (Long Life Power) from Screwfix over a year ago on a deal. Not sure sure which are superior but mine are lasting a very long time in TV remotes, Clocks and Blood Pressure machine.

Penny more for AA’s

Whats the difference with the industrial ones? They come up an £1 cheaper on amazon... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Varta-Industrial-Alkaline-frustration-packaging/dp/B001P026Z6/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=varta%2Bbatteries&qid=1591341453&sr=8-1&th=1

True, all my Eneloops capacities are within about +/- 200 mAh of when they were new and some are about 5 years old now.

Thank you so much for this!

For ease of use I like the Liitokala Engineer Lii-500 but if you want a good compact one (but it's a bit more fiddly to use) something like a Technoline BC-500 I think it's called (there are others same charger different brand). :) Both discharge but Liitokala is easier to read and more Intuitive.

I bought a load of those cheap 7dayshop rechargeable batteries and they’ve all failed. I recommend IKEA or Eneloops now. Cheap rechargeables are a false economy, it’s worth spending a bit more and getting ones that are made in Japan.

Ladda are good batteries but Ikea chargers are rubbish. Got one DOA

No, they're smaller.

Are these AA?

Thanks op just picked some up

Ikea sourcing their batteries from eneloop is well-established, no point debating what is already well-known. As for the price quoted for this item (£10 inc delivery), it's very close to eneloop. Not sure what else remains to discuss. Good night.

Rechargeable lithium batteries in the AA size that give out a constant regulated 1.5 volts due to having inbuilt circuitry......pricey but top banana for products that hate 1.25 volts of normal rechargeable NiMh. Kentli rechargeable lithium polymer in AA and AAA and Tenavolt and Deeleepow lithium ion that contain a 3.7 volt cell regulated to give 1.5 volts so the overall capacity is greater than eneloops and are lighter while still being AA in size.......NiMh........Dead old technology now.

First you talking about Eneloop now about Ikea own brand. I've checked Ikea stuff before and certainly is not re branded Eneloop. Some freaks made some long term test and proved they are only similar but definitely not the same. What about IKEA postage? It's not like you can quickly just nip in to Ikea behind the corner with their 21 shops in whole country.

Ikea LADDA AA x4 are rebranded eneloop pros and available for £5.50. Eneloop/Fujitsu brand is closer to £10 though.

I bought a laptop battery by this brand and it has poor capacity :-(

Unknown brand and expensive. There are cheaper and more than likely better batteries posted here: Varta, Energizer, Lidl, Ikea are just a few. This deal is only ok if you really want only 2 batteries. If you want decent ones, you either go with a good brand, or with Lidl, Ikea as the reviews suggest the quality is good.

Not very reputable brand, capacity is likely to be half of advertised, I would rather go for Eneloops, GP Recyko or - if you want something cheap - Amazon Basics.

Interested to know what cold votes are based on?

The capacity is likely overstated bud. Haven't voted either way

Haha, I've been doing the same after every rechargeable battery post on here people instantly pipe up about these magical Lidl batteries, I've been looking since February!

£3 more but I agree, reviews for the Ikea ones are good and have bigger capacity. My personal experience with Energizer is bad, so if I was to choose in between these and the Ikea ones, I will go with Ikea. I still believe the best of all, taking in consideration the brand, the quality and the price are Varta from Screwfix. However, Energizer is a brand in batteries, while Ikea is not, so perhaps most people will think Energizer are better. I think the price for these ones is not bad, shame about the quality.

IKEA ones work out same price delivered and are better or so the reviews say...

Really? Go and get some. I'm looking for them since a month ago and I go once a week to Lidl. This is a deal because is delivered and maybe because you can't find any cheaper now. Saying this, you can actually find cheaper, Varta at Screwfix. Which are great, but you have to collect them. For me this is not a deal simply because my opinion is Energizer are the worse batteries. I've got about 8 different brands and these and the Fuji ones are the only that let me down.

Can someone explain why this is a 'deal'? 4 for £3 always popping up at Lidl.

Well thank you for your somewhat forthright advice. As for wasting my money, we shall have to wait and see. Each to their own eh?

You can ignore good advice (answering your question) or you can look into it. I've owned one of these cheap Oral-B things, seemed like a good idea for travel but it really isn't. FAR less effective than the better ones and the battery door issue is a major problem. If you insist on wasting your money you don't need to waste this much as they are regularly offered in places like B&M for under £6.

I don't have an electric toothbrush yet so I can't say. I bought this model for my daughter some time ago, and she hasn't mentioned anything about battery life. I shall have to ask her. I can't imagine that they will need changing too often.

How long do your rechargeable batteries last in the toothbrush ?

Not working out so great over at Amazon Prime for some reason.

Slightly above your price range but this is a well respected charger (imo) Opus BT C3100 v2.2 Battery Charger I haven't purchased from this company so I can't give an opinion on them but other purchasing options are available. (y)

Definitely a good price for a respected Japanese manufactured battery. (highfive)

Nothing wrong with the EnergiZers then.

Ordered. Forgot to use the code. Annoying

Standard price I look for is 4 for £1

Why all the cold votes are Amazon Basics that bad?

https://lygte-info.dk/review/batteries2012/CommonAAcomparator.php

I'm intrigued. What's going on?

Of course you don’t (lol)

I don't know about any of that, sorry

OP - why did you delete or report my first comment??!. Evidently thought it would be a threat to it going hot lol. Strange person (lol) Probably going to report this one too now lol

Thanks ordered AA & AAA

Surely they can’t be that good if they’re only 2100

It's actually my cheap Energiser charger that came with a set of batteries that sometimes doesn't recognise a battery. I have a Nitecore I4 now too and not had a problem with that. Anyway good tip on trying a different charger if you have one, if not try the nail trick. Point is don't rush to throw away what you think is a dead battery.

Not such an unknown trick. Intelligent chargers are picky and I often get this problem. So I keep a old cheapie charger handy, place apparently dead rechargeable into it for 20 sec, now the intelligent charge will finish the job.

ALSO the 4pk AAA's, 2 pk C's 2 pk D's & 9v single are all the same price at £4.99

How did this get hot? Was it the 'state of the art' charge status display? I wouldn't waste my money on one of these. I've invested a bit more than this to get a decent intelligent charger instead.

I had energizer charger before the actual plug seemed to break and made it unusable, one of the fast chargers and didn't seem to last long even with adequate care. Been using UNiROSS 1 Hour Ultimate smart charger for a long time, really recommended. Though I don't bother using the 1 hour, though it does seem to resurrect some of the knackered ones from the Energizer 15 minute charger (though not enough for cameras etc), and there's a knack to it if you want to condition them etc. I think I read anything less than 1 hour charge is no good for the niMh

Same with mine

Doesn't say much for it when you need to get an 'out of date' charger (lol) wish I'd held onto mine but threw it out years ago I think it was a uniross one

Update: this method worked, got a very old charger from the 90s, charged it up a little and switched to the Energizer. Appreciate the tip as I have many rechargeable Lidl batteries stuck in a box that couldn't charge and was losing my mind over why not. Still think it is a horrible charger and is an avoid, rather have a reliable charger that can charge from completely flat. Especially if this is to be taken on trips.

Read the other comments. You're right to think it's expensive. £8.95 the most expensive it's been on amazon in months.

Seems expensive to me but probably you guys know better. I bought several packs of 4 for £4.99 each last week from ScrewFix, 2100 mah, not the same but comparable I think. (skeptical)

They've stopped collecting data during the pandemic, so it's no longer updating with new prices, but it still has all the historical data. That's why in the screenshot, the "current" price is from the 22nd of March.

I thought camel wasn’t working?

What are you talking about? I have prime. I'm clearly talking about the non-prime cost of batteries in this deal. The non-prime cost of these batteries averages at around £8.50.
