If Earth Day got you thinking about ways to reduce your carbon footprint, check out these rechargeable batteries. They can prevent up to 2,000 disposable batteries from entering landfills — and save you hundreds of dollars in the process.
Plus, these batteries come with a twist. Unlike other rechargeables, you don’t need a clunky charging station. They recharge with an included four-way micro-USB cable you plug directly into them!
Get a four-pack of rechargeable AA batteries for $15.99 (regularly $49.95). (AAA batteries are also available.)
Save 2,000 disposable batteries and hundreds of dollars
Using rechargeable batteries can really cut down on nasty stuff that might otherwise go into a landfill. These guys have built-in recharge controls to prevent overcharging themselves, helping preserve their safety and longevity. (One charge will power them up in around six hours.)
Their load-holding capacity also bests International Electrotechnical Commission standards. However, every rechargeable lithium battery has a lifespan. These are estimated to have a cycle life of around 500 recharges under normal conditions.
We’ll do the math for you: If one of these batteries lasts about as long as a disposable alkaline battery each time you use it, then it’s stopping 500 traditional batteries from ending up in your local landfill.
Plus, you’re getting a pack of four, meaning that’s around 2,000 fewer batteries ending up in the garbage. We wouldn’t even call that eco-friendly anymore — that’s more like eco-superhero.
Let’s see what some verified eco-superheros — or buyers — have to say after buying this rechargeable batteries. David T. left a five-star rating and wrote, “[They] hold a charge well. And last almost as long as a standard alkaline battery.”
Scott S. also left a five-star review, writing, “Great batteries, and it’s nice not having to use a clunky charging station.” We second both of those points.
