Built for the long wait

A remote or a wall clock draws so little that a set lasts many months. What matters there is not capacity but how much charge the cell keeps while it waits. Panasonic rates standard eneloop to keep 70% after ten years in storage at 20 °C, where pro is rated for 85% after one year.

A storage case keeps the spare set from rattling against keys in a drawer. The case holds four AA or five AAA, and two colors let you mark charged and empty.

Every cell listed under eneloop for remotes and clocks charges in any charger of the eneloop line, standard or pro.

eneloop for remotes and clocks: questions

Are eneloop good for your TV remote?

Standard eneloop suits a remote: it keeps its charge through the long months between swaps, and the pack descriptions list remote controls first among the uses.

Will eneloop work in your wall clocks?

Yes, in clocks that take AA or AAA. A clock drains so little that capacity hardly matters, so the standard line is the sensible buy.
