Modern AA NiMH is so superior to the crap we used to have, and cheaper too. I get that Li-ion charges faster, but there is something about industry standard batteries. Hmmmmm. Maybe it's not so much AA that I miss, but the standardization. If Li-ion were sold and designed for swappable 18650 form factor, then we wouldn't need as many. The problem is that different Li-ion can have different specs and/or safety features (protected cells have slightly less current and are slightly longer). Still, modern AA NiMH remains a standard form factor and capable. ---------- The other set of standard batteries is Lead Acid (6V 4.5 Ahr is standardized for example). When did we become incapable of standardizing parts btw? Why are all of our batteries across iPhones and Google Pixels and Samsung Galaxies different? |
