This is a breakthrough in rechargeable battery technology for 2 great reasons:
1. They are supplied charged - just open the pack & use them straight away.
2. They do not run down in the same way that
traditional NiMH & NiCd batteries do, so even if you leave them for a year
after being charged there will still be the majority of the original capacity
left in them.
Truly the best parts of Alkaline batteries & NiMH rechargeables. These are
similar to the Sanyo Eneloop, Ansmann maxE & Uniross Hybrio batteries.
Vapex ?instant? Batteries are the latest in rechargeable battery technology from one of the very few companies in the world capable of producing this latest innovation in rechargeable battery technology.
It is well known that high quality NiMH rechargeable batteries outperform disposable ones (including even the very best alkaline batteries) in power hungry gadgets such as digital cameras, but there were 2 areas where they had problems.....
1) They had to be charged before first use.
2) Once charged they would run down without even being put in anything,
typically losing around 25%
of the stored energy per month. Not really a problem when you are charging them
frequently, but for low
power or occasional uses this could become inconvenient.
Vapex ?Instant? batteries
utilise a new technology which solves these problems.
The batteries are supplied charged, so just use them straight after purchase
The batteries discharge at a much slower rate than conventional NiMH batteries,
so even a year after being charged there is still most of the initial charge
available. So you get all the benefits of traditional NiMH rechargeable
batteries, without the drawbacks - and you can still use a standard NiMH
charger to charge them up again (maximum charge current 1250mA).
Below are our actual test results of the Vapex Instant 2500mAh batteries against the Sanyo XX 2500mAh batteries. As the Sanyo batteries are generally accepted as being the best there is (about the most expensive too!) this just shows what exceptional batteries the Vapex instant 2500mAh ones really are.
We test all our products to ensure that the quality is just as it should be & here the results speak for themselves. Actual measured capacities: Vapex instant - 2512mAh, Sanyo XX 2550mAh. Batteries charged using our own 8-way AA charger.
About Us
Component-Shop started in 2003 by the current owner Iain & his wife Natasha. With top quality products & service it quickly grew from being a hobby enterprise to now employing 5 people. We have our own 5,000 square foot warehouse on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park. From here we don't just supply goods, but we also manufacture. Our abilities include:
Battery pack assembly - we have professional battery welding equipment.
Custom lead assembly
Electronics assembly - we have an automatic pick & place component assembly line
Battery testingMost other sellers are simply "selling boxes" they don't understand the products they sell, simply choosing them based on price, that is not our way. Having studied an electronic engineering degree & then worked for 11 years as a product development engineer in the telecomms industry, Iain looks at things from an engineer's perspective, i.e. having things that work as they should & fully understanding them is what matters most, so you can be assured that you are getting the best.
