          Product Details

          Stop wasting your money on disposable batteries! I personally use these in every device in my household.

          If you don't believe the hype, $10-$15 bucks isn't a huge expense to try it out yourself :) Nothing beats first hand experience. Be the expert, not the uninformed.

          Never (ever) use disposable alkaline batteries again! Don't worry, I used to be just like you, buying costco packs of alkaline batteries and feeling bad about the incredibly insane amount of waste...of raw materials, but also money.

          Disposable batteries are a major punishment on your wallet. Thousands of dollars over a lifetime, and thousands of batteries in the landfill. I don't know about you, but I work hard for the money that is in my pocket and I really hate the idea of paying that hard earned cash for something that I KNOW is going into the trash...I'm talking about alkaline batteries in case that wasn't clear.

          Modern NiMh batteries have none of the drawbacks that you associate with rechargeable batteries. I really mean it. My house has switched over (100%) to rechargeables and I couldn't be happier.

          Why don't I carry eneloop?! GP ReCyko+ compares very (very) favorably to everyone's favorite Panasonic eneloop...in practice you'll never know the difference. I wouldn't bother to sell ReCyko+ if I wasn't 100% confident they were awesome.

          I actually tried to get a deal with Panasonic for a couple of years and they were awful to deal with at every step. It took me more than a year just to get a response from them, which finally involved calling in a favor from someone I knew at Panasonic.

          I got fed up with their attitude and contacted GP. Negotiating a deal still took a long time, but they have been amazingly responsive and helpful every step of the way. I've actually been buying LR44 batteries from GP for years. When I enquired about AA/AAA rechargeables the next email came from their US VP of sales within 24 hours.

          When I'm dealing with any company, it matters what kind of company they are, and I'm proud to be representing GP. You may have never heard of GP here in the US, but they are a major player in the rest of the world and manufacture a huge percentage of the world's batteries.

          Recharge early and often!

          Do not run rechargeable batteries until they are completely empty (when the light shuts off on its own). Doing so will trip the protection circuit and render the battery inoperable. The Foursevens Flex Charger and Xtar VC2/VC4 chargers are normally able to reactivate a tripped battery; however, best practice is to recharge early and often. Fully discharging the battery causes long term damage to the cell.

          Storage

          ALWAYS store batteries in a protective case that will prevent short circuits. NEVER put bare cells into a pocket, bag, or drawer. A short circuit will lead to an uncontrolled release of energy...otherwise known as a ball of molten lava.

          Do batteries have a "memory" effect I should worry about?
          NO. Modern rechargeable batteries (Li-Ion or NiMh) do not have any memory effect. It's best practice to recharge early and often. In fact, fully depleting a battery will damage it and reduce the overall capacity.
          what is the shelf life of a charged battery?
          Generally speaking, all our batteries will retain 80% of their charge after six months. People worry about this more than they should. Modern batteries hold a charge for a long time. Just charge them and put them away properly. You should charge batteries once a year. Putting them in the fridge is also a myth. Don't do it.
          Does heat or cold have a negative effect?
          Li-Ion and NiMh batteries can be operated in sub-freezing temperatures. However, a cold battery will deliver less capacity (run time) than expected. Batteries should ALWAYS be at room temperature before charging. Charging a frozen battery can permanently damage the cell and lead to an internal short circuit. In a Li-Ion battery this can cause a fire. Most batteries can tolerate heat up to about 104F/40C. You should never leave a light (or any device) inside a car and exposed to direct sunlight.
          Should I leave batteries on my charger all the time?
          NO. It's best practice to remove batteries from the charger once they are fully charged. It also depends on the quality of your charger, but again, best practice is to remove the batteries. Some low quality chargers can create a risk of fire.
          Can I install batteries backwards to prevent accidental activation?
          NO! Back in the day people would install batteries backwards in a light for storage and to prevent the light from turning on by accident. You should NEVER install batteries backwards in electronic devices.
          Full power for the life of the battery:
          Alkalines loose power as they run down.
          They don't leak:
          And you know alkalines leak and ruin your stuff all the time.
          ReCyko+ lasts for more 1000 charges:
          One battery vs. 1000 alkalines!
          Low Self Discharge:
          75% charge retention at 12 months
          The best option for Beta QR flashlights:
          or any device for that matter.
          Same performance as expensive lithium disposables:
          without the waste.
