It's not often you come across something so simple yet so practical! Over the last few weeks we've been putting these latest generation of 1.5v lithium AA batteries though some pretty rugged testing and comparing their performance to the tried and tested NiMh AA Batteries many of us use to fuel our power hungry handheld consoles
The four biggest Pro's to these 1.5V lithium AA's we've found are
- Energy Capacity - At least 40% longer runtime in your handheld vs the leading NiMh AA batteries even at higher current draw
- Rock solid 1.5v output - Right up until the last 5% of charge when it will drop to 1.1v to trigger the low battery warning on your device. No more blinking power LED's until they're close to empty
- Genuine AA size - Not fatter or longer or with a shorter tip which can cause all kinds of connection issues (common with DMG and GG consoles) and getting jammed up in your console (Lynx 1&2 especially!)
- Convenience - Designed as a Battery storage box, you can leave your AA's in the box indefinitely powered by a USB-C cable, or unpowered. Your cells will be ready when you need them, every time.
The AA 1.5V lithium battery kit includes an 8 cell battery box with built in smart charger, USB A to C charge cable, Instructions and 8 of the highest capacity Lithium AA batteries we could source.
Notes: Not suitable for NiMh cells, Alkaline cells or other non rechargeable cells. USB Power supply not included, recommended 5v 3A minimum. Charge rate ~650mA per cell (3-4hrs for a full charge from empty), limited to 3A combined for all 8 cells. Compatible with other brand 1.5V lithium cells. Rated at ~1600 cycles.
