Yes, Ken, a question, why be so demeaning? Can you point to something specific from each of the people that you've derided that was so stupid or mean that you were compelled to go into this mode?

Pompous in its stubborn stupidity.

Sorry to say it that way, but it's like needing to kick a horse that won't listen in order to get its attention.

Have you considered that maybe people have already, politely, tried to lead you away from your ignorance of things electric? But you stubbornly didn't listen and don't learn?

Draw. Voltage drop. Capacity. Physics, Ohm's Law, etc., don't change because it's a jetBook.

You: "My experience is with the JBL. Your's and those you reference appears to be with the performance of your favorite battery in general or in other equipment."

chainring's response: "JetBook Lite, clock, radio, whatever... They're all electronic devices that require a certain amount of voltage and ampere hours to operate. I could care less which one, just tell me the power requirements. "

But you're still not accepting new information, like, how your pre-conceived notions are, maybe, possibly, incorrect?

such testing posted.

Guess what, Ken? Tests of Eneloops are all over the web, like in the links you were given. Just not done with your insistence that electricity works differently in a JBL.

ACK! THIS IS THE ONLY REASON I go through the pain of checking this thread about once a month, because I just knew you'd ignore the posts that told you your LSDs are not real LSDs, and misinform others by using results from your fake LSDs to tell others that LSDs aren't as claimed. Stubborn ignorance.

NOTE TO OTHERS: Ken's LSDs are not performing like any other major brand 2100 mAh LSDs (see teasts on web) because they are NOT TRUE LSDs (see earlier posts).

Like who, exactly?

Take my introduction to your snarkiness. In my first post I wrote what I thought might be a helpful summary of rechargeable types, and in it said that I didn't know the crossover point. Then in a subsequent post, simply answering my own question about crossover point, I used a Wikipedia-referenced study that just happened to have used the Eneloop brand LSD. That's when you imputed some fanboy motivation to me. I went, "Whaaat?" Where was that from?

Jeanne? She just gave her user experiences, which was very valuable to me. To your credit, you've always laid out the caveat that your tests don't indicate lifetimes. In my experience (maybe 300 rechargeable AAs and AAAs over many years), I could never find a way to tell which brand or model within a brand would last longest. Jeanne's was the first user experience given in this thread. I would much rather she found that a Duracell or other brand did well, so I wouldn't have to see more of your knee-jerk impolite reponses because of the simple mention of a simple brand.

Read the posts. It was always you who reacted to the word Eneloop in a rabid way, making people defensively feed you more links (which you seemingly ignored).

Read the thread. You've been given links. No one cares about brand, unless it works better for their purposes.

The NiZn tests are great. NiMH tests are on the web. You're repeating them, with lesser test equipment (a battery display icon). But that's fine, as maybe you'll come up with some interesting result or observation.

Now, to utter the harshest word I can say to respond to your uncalled for impoliteness:

ENELOOP
