Sanyo Eneloop batteries
 

Low discharge -> Perfect batteries for storage.

"The key-advantage of the eneloop compared to usual rechargeable batteries is its extremely low self-discharge.

Once charges, eneloop keeps its charge even if you store it for 6 or 12 months.

( 90 per cent of the charge after 6 months, 85 per cent after 12 months )

For a rechargeable battery this is a revolutionary advantage.

No more worries about the state of charge of your battery.

Just, charge them and keep them.

Even after months you will still have an almost full battery."

Isn't the walmart stuff with 4X on the outside of the package basically the same thing? I think I got kodak 4x batteries and they make similar shelf life claims. Eneloop may have been first on the market though..

No, i don't own them yet, but I've ordered a sh*tload of them from china.

There's also GP recyko, varta ready2use etc that uses the same tecnology as eneloop. But sanyo (eneloop) is the gold standard.
