Rechargeable Batteries have an inherent characteristic to release their stored energy in small amounts (this phenomenon is called ‘self-discharge’). This property is particularly noticeable in rechargeable batteries such as Nickel Metal Hydride Batteries etc. as compared to dry cell batteries, hence disabling rechargeable batteries from becoming batteries that ‘customers can use immediately after purchase’.
For this reason, rechargeable batteries couldn’t be used unless charged after purchase and so lagged behind dry cells in convenience. This new product’s main property is that it has introduced great improvements in self-discharge properties (residual ratio after one year of non use is 85%, in temperature conditions of 20 degree Celsius according to MAHA research).
Through this breakthrough development, MAHA has realized a rechargeable battery that can challenge dry cell batteries in user-friendliness, features such as making possible use immediately after purchase or once charged, its ability to be used anytime. These new batteries also boast a longer lifetime as well as increased power retention under warmer environments. The batteries can be recharged for hundreds of times.
The IMEDION batteries are fully compatible with all Powerex chargers and are available in 2100mAh capacity for AA size and 800mAh for AAA. The suggested retail prices are USD $13.95 for a 4 AA pack and $12.95 for a 4 AAA pack, respectively.
