Individual tests



Comparision of capacity at all currents
Select the two batteries to compare, both set of curves will be shown in the chart.
The batteries are in two sections, first the rechargeable and further down the list the primary batteries, each section in alphabetic order. The dark trace is from the B battery in the test (With primary batteries I have only tested one battery, i.e. no B trace).

Usual NiMH capacity is specified down to 1.0 volt and alkaline/lithium down to 0.8 volt.

Note: All NiMH test from 2014 is with new test equipment, this means that small difference between older test, might be due to equipment, not due to the actual cell.
