Hi, am considering getting a reliable rechargeable battery for my children's toys. Double A battery size. Anyone here with smthe same experience can recommend a good brand? My only aim is to be more cost effective than buying them normal battery. I buy energizer battery almost exclusively.

Edit : I need AA size battery. Typo

Ya want 1.2v or 1.5v ah?
1.2v=regular toys.
1.5v=high powered toys like VR controller.

Eneloop. White ones la. Ayam bought a pair back in 2014. Last month starts problem(can't stay at above 1.2v as long as it used too). Good la. Ayam abused the hell of them pairs.

Ikea rechargable are eneloop rechargeable rebranded(internet told me).

Don't expect batteries can be rechargeable like new for 10 years or wut ever years it was advertised enuf la.

Ikea

Bought both non and rechargable

Some toys kids very rough will inevitably damage the rechargable battery inside so just put regular ones instead
*
How they damage the battery inside the toy? Other than setting the toy on fire or drag thru the mud

Like a damaged brain in a skull in a car.

It's placed in something eg the toy,

Just impact force, got dented

Can't be charged after that

Fingers crossed for me!

If want to prolong the battery life, get a smart charger that can charge each battery individually (normal charger need to pair the battery to charge), monitor battery level and cut off charging when the battery full. I use this 4 slot one: https://shopee.com.my/LiitoKala-Lii-402-186...2830.2155526821 since I have many rechargables, but there's 2 slot and 1 slot also.

Can I use this charger for the recommended Eneloop battery? How long does a charger typically last? Assuming it's taken cared off

Also, how long does it take to fully charge a battery?

Can use on many type of rechargable battery. Not sure how long can use, but I use almost 1 year still doing fine. Just sometime need to rub off the dust from the metal of no use for long time. So far still okay. My 1000mAh take about 5 hours to full. It can detect what type of battery it charges and adjust the voltage and current accordingly.

Thank you

Ts, if you are up to it ... mod it to use a rechargeable 18650. You will have to put in a vld depend on the voltage of the toy.
