Question 1

amazon basics black vs amazon basics white

Accepted Answer

To clarify, there are three different versions of AmazonBasic rechargeable NiMH batteries:- The original AmazonBasics batteries came in black wrappers. They are made in China and have the capacity rating of 2000mAh. They are NOT as good as Sanyo eneloop batteries.ASIN:B0030T1NEA AmazonBasics AA NiMH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries- The second version of AmazonBasics batteries came in white wrappers. They are made in Japan and also have the capacity rating of 2000mAh. They are (according to me) rebranded 2nd-gen Sanyo eneloop, so you can expect at least 1500 cycles lifespan.ASIN:B00CWNMV4G AmazonBasics Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries- The third version is also black but called 'high-capacity'. They are (according to me) rebranded Sanyo XX. They are rated 2400mAh, but actual capacity is around 2550mAh, just like Sanyo XX. The rated lifespan of the XX is only 500 cycles.ASIN:B00HZV9TGS AmazonBasics High-Capacity Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries

Question 2

Describing a battery as "high capacity": does not inform the buyer.  1500 mAh?  2000?  2500?  Why are you hiding this spec?!?

Accepted Answer

Generally, you have to search the cell description to find the rating. There isn't an industry standard as regards what constitutes a "high capacity" cell, so you will see it roughly corresponds to AA cells of 2000 mah and higher. Rarely do AA cells ever exceed 2700 mah, although a few vendors make such claims, which are mostly found to be bogus.

Question 3

can i use my eastshine s2 charger? or must use your charger?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can use the eastshine S2 charger. These batteries are NI-MH.

Question 4

are this AA batteries fatter then Alkaline batteries ? i use eneloop lite where i cant use regular eneloops due to size restrictions

Accepted Answer

Those AmazonBasics High-Capacity AA batteries are slightly fatter than regular eneloop cell, which are alreaddy slightly fatter than alkaline AA. So if you have to resort to using eneloop-lite in battery compartments, then those high-capacity cells are not going to fit.
