    • Great question . Wanting to know myself . Waiting for the experts

  • Cheers OP, stocked up on mooore enelooops

  • +1

    14 day wait period before shipping for eneloop?

  • How do eneloops compare to Coles rechargeables

    • There's no comparison.

      And by that I mean there are PLENTY Eneloop reviews and tests online, as they are considered to be (one of) the best rechargeable batteries.

      Also, you can buy Eneloop batteries which are made in Japan not China, and there's just no comparison between the two in terms of quality (because the difference is so big).

  • Thanks OP

    purchased 3 items.

    Just need a good deal on the tile pro (2020) 4 pack now ;)

  • Can these be charged with energizer charger?

  • As a boomer, I missed those days when eneloop 8pack was $20 and only get 8+ votes

  • Hey OzBargains,

    Seen the Eneloop talk around for a while but now want to make the jump myself to stop buying batteries.

    Most usage would be for Xbox One, TV remotes (Samsung & Foxtel), plus I guess anything in the house that uses batteries.

    I would need a charger of course, is the fast charger in this deal the best one or say the Costco deal here. Are they the same charger or is the fast charger better?

    Also recommendation of the normal vs the pro varieties?

      Also recommendation of the normal vs the pro varieties?

      Given your stated use cases the normal ones are fine.

      I would need a charger of course

      Spend abit more and get a smart charger rather than a dumb charger - the one in the link you posted is a dumb charger.

      I have the La Crosse Technology BC700, which has been discontinued for the BC1000, but there are plenty of others similar, eg. https://eneloop101.com/charge/advanced-chargers/

      • Thanks for the tips mate, but didn't see this till after I purchased as they were all selling out. Ending up going with the fast "dumb" charger. Should be fine enough for what ill use them for

  • +1

    Finally got my first ever eneloop after 4 years of OzB membership. Don't forget 2.8% cashrewards folks!

  • +1

    Thanks OP, bought 8xAAs, 8xAAAs and a charger! ;)

  • +2

    all the Pros are gone it seems

  • Panasonic Eneloop AAA 800mAh - 4 Pack Batteries Pre-Charged - sold out??

  • Finally!

    Been waiting ages for an Eneloop special!

    Man this is getting OzBargained for sure!

    No more pro ones left at time of posting so had to settle for 4x of the Eneloop standard 4 pack

    Whew, this is a lifesaver. I can finally replace the batteries in my son's music drum kit. The batteries there were running down to the point where when he waddles over and presses the buttons the music sounds come out all garbled and off tune.

    There are also times that I get to the point where I'm desperate enough to remove the ones from the TV remote just to keep him happy.

    Double thanks OP!

    • Just get some cheap rechargeables from Aldi for the remotes. They're about $6 for a 4 pack. No point spending extra on the Eneloops just for remotes.

  • Thanks OP.

    Managed to grab some normal and Pro AAA's yesterday before they went out of stock.

  • Has anyone had their order processed yet? Mine still sitting on processing after 5 days.

    • Mine is the same, still stuck under Processing status.

    • Also same and it's been almost a week.

      • Does anyone know if Camera House is still operating while we're under lockdown?

        • +1

          Same for me

    • Mine hasnt been shipped either

      • Has anyone got their order yet messaged them about a month ago. Got genric "we currently have a backlog of these orders due to the high level of demand through this sale"
        Sent another email last night awaiting reply.

        • I chased up a reply on Sunday and got a reply:

          Thank you for you email & ongoing patience.

          We are working as hard as we can to fulfil these outstanding backorders, However Panasonic have advise stock is due this week or the 1st week of June.

          We understand that these delays are inconvenient but we are working as hard as we do fulfil your order.

  • Novice with rechargeable batteries, I already have a few eneloops with a Panasonic "basic" dum charger.
    How does the Panasonic smart faster charger compare to the NITECORE UM4 costing an extra $15 dollars? Is it worth over the 4 included eneloops?

  • +8

    Just went on Camera House’s chat to see what was happening with my order & they said they had no stock & no idea when new stock would arrive (couldn’t even tell me if it’d be weeks or months). I asked them why they hadn’t sent a quick email to let people know re: the delay & lack of stock & they just apologised & asked if I still wanted to wait. Just thought I’d share as I think the majority of us will not be having our orders processed for a long time (certainly not within 14 business days)…

    • +3

      Update: ended up cancelling my order, I don’t like not having any ETA for delivery & it kind of rubs me the wrong way when sellers don’t communicate a lack of stock & inability to fulfil an order. Good luck to those who remain in the race, hope they don’t keep you waiting too long.

      • +1

        Bit ridiculous its been over a week and we haven't heard a word.

    • +3

      I did a Chat with Camerahouse, as soon as I mentioned checking Web Order and see when they will process my order, they abruptly ended by Chat, very rude, should I do a PayPal dispute?

      • +2

        i spoke to them too, told 2nd week of may. Told them its false advertising as never listed as preorder. Appreciate its busy times but thats no excuse for ripping people off. At least Adidas has had the decency to send an email acknowledging the delay.

        • +1

          Out of stock items were marked as "shipped within 14 days" - can't remember if it was 14 calendar or business days though. But yeah they should've given updates while waiting for the stock to arrive.

          • @tukanglistrik: I definitely ordered pretty quick and dont remember seeing that but i migght have just missed the stock they had.

  • +1

    mine was shipped:Tue 14/04
    expected delivery date: Wed 15 - Fri 17 Apr*
    auspost is now telling me "delayed"

    "Just so you know, over 90% of late items arrive within 3 business days of their expected delivery date."
    so should have been here today at the latest, but nothing…

    • Mine arrived yesterday, a full one week after dispatch on 14/4. I'm in Sydney so I believe yours should arrive within the next few days.

      • yeah probably, not really complaining with everything going on.

  • +4

    Finally got an email reply from them (Order still listed as "Processing"):

    Thank you for your email.

    We currently have a backlog of these orders due to the high level of demand through this sale.

    We will be able to share an update with you early this week.

    Kind Regards,

    Camera House Online

    • +1

      I haven't received any email from them since 11/4

      • Yeah same here.

    • Got the exact cut and paste email. haven’t heard anything after that. getting to be a debacles.

      • +1

        I put in a refund request via PayPal, which got their immediate attention, and they're agreed and processed my refund, suggest people do the same.

  • +2

    Still processing what a fizzer of a deal, will probably request a refund if they don't ship soon.

  • +2

    no response after 11/4 and got the same email on 19/4 after I chased it up. nothing again since then. will request a cancellation on paypal.

  • +2

    I think it might be time to cancel via PayPal too.

    I just tried to get an update via their online chat and as soon as I provided the order number the chat was disconnected. Looking on their FB page and the Product-review website (https://www.productreview.com.au/listings/camera-house) their lack of communication/updates for online orders seems to be a common theme.

  • Still no word from them until now, just email them asking for refund. I fully understand, these are tough times. Delay is expected, if they would bother to keep me update I would be happy to wait

  • +2

    I finally got a response from Camera House today - see below. I think I'll wait….good deals on Eneloops are few and far between these days.

    "Thank you for your patience with your outstanding order with Camera House Online. We are working closely with Panasonic Australia to fulfill all outstanding orders from our Battery Sale.

    However due to the huge response we received from this sale we are having to wait for our stock to be refilled. We are hoping to be able to fill majority of orders by the end of May.

    However we understanding that this may not suitable & if you do not wish to proceed we can cancel & refund the order."

    • Yes, received the same response, word-for-word. Initially they ignored my email but once I followed it up with a less friendly enquiry, I soon got a reply.

    • Originally it was 2nd week of May. Now it's end of May.

    • I also got this email just now after asking them what's the deal.

  • +2

    Has anyone got these or any updates yet?

  • +1

    Just received tracking info. Does any one know if It's okay to recharge IKEA LADDA's with the Panasonic fast charger? And if LADDA's are capable of being fast charged at all.

    • when did you order?

      • 11/04/2020

    • Yeah same but i don't think they've actually sent them out yet

  • I also ordered on the 11th April and got tracking details yesterday.

  • I reported this deal as expired, but I only checked the main link. But after checking each link individually, I see it's good.

    How do I remove the report? Looks like it's not possible.

    • +1

      Done, only the Tiles are still active now.

      • Yeah, too bad. Thanks anyway.

  • got the tracking details :)

  • My order arrived finally.

  • My order finally shipped today.

    • Same here.

  • still not shipped yet

  • Still no joy from me, ordered on 11/4

  • My order arrived today, late in the afternoon.

    I forgot I actually bought these and was a bit surprised why I was getting a delivery.

  • Ordered 11/04, item not sent yet

  • Still waiting…

  • I did a paypal refund and got a reply that my order was on backorder and will be coming or delivered mid May. We'll see how this goes I guess. Only a week or 2 away now.

  • My order of AAA eneloops arrived this morning - ordered 11/04

    • ordered the same day. still nothing.

      • Same.

        I think those who ordered only 1 or 2 packs have got their order already. I ordered 7x packs of the AAA and 4x AA hence I'm at the bottom of the list it would seem

        • Well I only ordered 1 pack but there were hundreds of upvotes on that day and probably hundreds of orders to go with it so they'd just be going down their long list I suppose.

  • +3

    Put the refund request this morning and got approval to refund just now. Not ordering from this guy anymore. They don't have stock but keep selling it and no email communication for delayed shipment etc. Price wise is also not that cheap.

  • Hooray my order has shipped! Forgot I bought these. 😂

  • Seems really bad service and I won't be dealing with them again.
    Ordered a month ago and haven't heard anything since they took payment of 11th April.

  • I bought 1 pack of AAA, 1 pack of AA and a fast charger and no idea on when they will be shipped.

    Ordered them 11/4 so it's been a full month. Not a single update since the order was placed.

    • Don't bother, cancel the order, put in a PayPay dispute, CameraHouse, never again.

      • I gave them another week and still nothing so I've just submitted a paypal dispute. Never buying from these guys again.

  • Nearly forgot about this purchase - still no notice about the delay or dispatch wtf

  • +1

    Still no update for mine ☹️

  • Is there a way to find out the capacity left in these batteries after using them for number of years? I have some iKea batteries but they don't hold as much charge as they used to. I have NiteCore D4 charger but that doesn't seem to tell the capacity left in the batteries.

    • +1

      Google "battery coulometer"
      (or "coulometer battery")

      Amptron is good, but they start at over a hundred dollars for the 100 Amp model.

      Plenty of really cheap ones on eBay, Amazon US, Alibaba, etc.

      • +1

        Thank you sir, really appreciate it.

        • Glad I could help

  • +2

    Still nothing for me after I ordered on 11/04. So annoyed by this. Can’t believe they haven’t even given me an update. Mine is also showing as “processing” online. Wouldn’t buy from them again.

  • My order finally came just now.

  • +3

    Still waiting

  • +6

    This is easily the worst transaction experience of 2020

    No updates unless you hassle them

    What a joke of a business!

    • AND IT GETS BETTER!

      Enquired about the status yesterday. Was told now expecting stock to arrive mid-June.

      Said OK. You’ve been holding onto my(our) money for 7 weeks, how exactly would you be making amends for this? Out of the blue order was cancelled next day with no prior warning or explanation. Wow. Just wow.

      Anyone able to advise how I can down vote this scum business into oblivion, because imo they do not deserve to be receiving people’s custom.

  • I just remembered i ordered 2x AAA, went to live chat and told me ETA was mid June so I just cancelled it.

  • Been emailing them about this and was informed they still have yet to receive the shipment from Panasonic and cannot give an ETA.

    So for people who need batteries I would get a refund and get it from Costco or somewhere else. It may be more expensive but at least you'll have batteries

    • +1

      Then they should limit the sales according to their stock level rather than selling no stock item and no comm since then.

  • I forgot I bought these. Got an email about it today and was thinking was it a scam… turns out my memory doesn’t go back too far
