I wonder how many are Zinc Carbon that consumers erroneously buy not realising they are 40-50% the capacity of an alkaline Yes Zinc Carbon is better to end up in landfill hazardous materials wise, but the amount of carbon dioxide expended in their production must be enormous globally Shout out to Ikea selling rebadged Eneloops for ~2-3x cheaper than Panasonic

> Shout out to Ikea selling rebadged Eneloops for ~2-3x cheaper than Panasonic For anyone else looking it’s probably the “LADDA” batteries. https://www.ikea.com/es/en/cat/batteries-battery-chargers-41070/ https://www.ikea.com/es/en/cat/batteries-battery-chargers-41... They have AA and AAA sizes.

  The trick is to examine the packaging and see where they were manufactured, if they were made in Japan then you know they are from the Eneloop factory because that's the only AA/AAA manufacturer in Japan, and if they're made anywhere else then they are from some other mystery supplier. I think IKEA dual sources LADDA from Japan and China now so you have to check.
