DARK SECRETS: Powerowl pro goldtop batteries review | Vintage Vibes

Powerowl Pro Goldtop batteries

Think high-capacity rechargeable AA and AAA batteries and you’re probably thinking along the lines of Eneloop Pro, Energizer and Duracell. Powerowl Tech isn’t such a famous brand but the company has nevertheless been making batteries for big-name brands since 1996, launching its own line-up of batteries and chargers in 2017.

The current generation of standard Powerowl AA & AAA rechargeable NiMH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) batteries have a lot going for them, with 2800mAh and 1000mAh capacities respectively, as well as retaining 70% of their charge for two years when unused. And unlike some high-capacity batteries, they can be recharged up to 1200 times. That beats the few hundred maximum recycles claimed for Panasonic Eneloop Pro and Duracell rechargeable batteries, which also have a lower capacity rating of 2500mAh for the AA size, and 930/900mAh for AAA.
