Charging Eneloops

All, (except Rita ;-)

I recently bought the Sanyo Eneloop battery pack and charger deal at Costco.
I already have a Maha C204W charger and a hybrid fleet of Sanyo, Energizer
and Powerex AAs, and was wondering whether there was anything fundamentally
different between charging Eneloops and regular NiMH AAs. In other words, is
there any advantage in charging the Eneloops in the supplied Eneloop
charger, or will the Maha work just as well (or better)?

I'm packing for an o'seas trip(Italy) and don't want to needlessly carry 2
chargers...

Thanks!

Eneloops charge the same as for regular NiMh's, just avoid the really high
rates.

Cheers.

No difference.

My eneloops charge to 1.5v, slower chargers are better for batteries
but it may not make a diference in reality

The best thing about Eneloops is that you so rarely have to recharge
them that you don't have to worry about it very often.

I use the regular Sanyo NiMH charger. No problems for nearly a year.
