Lithium Rechargeable AA Batteries - Tested and Compared vs Ni-MH

In this video, we test a new set of Lithium Rechargeable AA batteries from POWEROWL. They are tested against similar Ni-MH rechargeable batteries to see how they perform and how long they last.
Thank you to POWEROWL for providing these batteries for review.

Good vid and info

[@marksaustralia6464]

Mmm yeah OK. This wasn't a review of different batteries. It was a sponsored review of power owls

[@FamilyGeekery]

Partially true. Which is why I’m required by law to state up front that I received the product from the company for review purposes. I could have simply just said “these things are great”, but I actually take the time to test each product out and report my results. And I reject a LOT more products than I accept, lol. But thank you in any case for watching. I hope you got something out of it. My sole purpose is not a simple sales pitch, but at the same time, I do run a business and I have to make decisions based on continuing to support the costs involved.

The lithium says 3000mWh not mAH so the capacity is much less.

[@FamilyGeekery]

Good catch! You are correct. So at 1.5v, the 3000 mWh lithium would be 2000 mAh. But with my simple flashlight test, they still outlasted the NiMh for some reason. Which is why I always just use advertised numbers as a ballpark comparison. Thanks for catching my oversight!

Lithium batteries also stay at the voltage much longer than Ni-MH as Ni-MH starts dropping voltage at 50% remaining vs lithium is 15% remaining before a huge drop off and Alkaline is always decreasing voltage as it's capacity lowers

[@mattklapman]

battery power and current ratings are usually market driven as they calculate their ratings with different testing setups, typically with different current draws. So one would need to run a consistent load-drain test to get proper ratings. For example, a high consistent drain will show a lower overall capacity than a pulsed low current drain. The data sheets usually show enough data to get a better feel.

Where was the "tested" portion of the video as the title suggests?? All you did was rambled about 2 batteries, not very informative

[@FamilyGeekery]

I explained that the best way I could test the batteries up against each other was by draining them with a flashlight, so I did report those results. Comparing volts and such wouldn’t really be comparing apples to apples (different chemistries, etc). So I went with a more simplistic/practical test. Sorry if you didn’t find it helpful. Thanks for watching my rambling anyhow, lol.
