I've got a bunch of low-discharge Eneloop batteries that I was going to try to use, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these. The interwebs have contradictory statements from people in both camps. If it's a toss-up, I'd prefer to use NiMH due to the lower environmental impact.
I can't speak to the specific application, but I REALLY like my Eneloops. I have a bunch of AAs and AAAs around the house, and haven't bought batteries for a long time. Weirdly, they seem to last even longer than my regular batteries did. The batteries in my Tivo Slide remote only had to be changed after around 5-7 months, and that's with VERY heavy use on a remote with bluetooth and backlighting.
