I'm glad you didn't test the EBL's I tested yesterday. LOL Some of those Li-ion batteries did very well, I like the micro USB charging feature. I was surprised to see the voltage drop as much as it did under load. Thanks for another fantastic testing video, and the NiMH update!
You did an A+++ job with your testing!! Thanks for the positive feedback! Here's a link in case others want to check it out! th-cam.com/video/HRaa5Joe3bI/w-d-xo.html
I find the usb charging annoying, as they don't seem to allow you to use a regular charger as an option. Usb or nothing.
The Li-ion AA batteries have electronics for charging and a buck for voltage..They will limit performance over a primary cell, take up space and so on. The performance limitations include voltage drop under load. This is not the cell impedance but the electronics also minimising current availability. This is guess work but I assume it is this way.
@@ProjectFarm I want to know if there is a charger that will keep more than just four fully charged and maintained.
I am a mechanic in a shop with a LOT of heavy equioment, and I use a headlamp extensively, and I go through a LOT of batteries, for the headlamp and flashlights.
I would love to know if such a charger exists, and how well they stack up.
Also, a workup on solar chargers would be nice, too.
Yeah, I have a bunch of EBLs. Goofy how they have to be charged in pairs. A lot of devices, like flashlights and headlamps for example, use 3 batteries. Makes charging equally drained batteries near impossible.
I swear he’s one of the most time invested youtubers
Thanks for watching.
For sure. You know you're getting a good quality show every time. I watch, whether the test involves something that interests me or not. Just a great job.
Agreed - not so much just 'because he invests time' - more when something should take time/effort, it's used.
I never see something being tested and feel I'd want it done any other way.
Absolutely, and his videos have 0 nonsense, full packed of information, you blink and you miss out on some information, I really love project farm 👌
My favorite part is he gets to the point and doesn't spend 10 minutes just talking about what he's going to show.
So when are products going to start saying “Approved by Project Farm” on the label? Lol
We're gonna test that.
I say that all the time. The dude is legit. Honest, hard working, Id totally trust anything that had his label on it.
Especially PF's Harbor Freight digital calipers that he's using (i have same calipers)
If it has that label I'll buy it any day because I know it's put in a fair test
Thanks for sharing.
I think some of these studies you are doing are priceless for people that don't have the money to buy it and do it. Saying that we can find out the best bang for our buck, I just wanna say thanks for the good content and the outcomes of the experiments.
You are welcome!
yeah i really think it's super helpful in deciding what to buy. it just so happens he reviews a lot of the stuff that I also want to know which is best to buy so that's great.
so whats the verdict here lol not sure if i should do laddas, eneloops, or lithium ones idek which
@@ProjectFarm whats better lithium ion rechargeables or nimh? it seems nimh might be better for my needs as they discharge slower/have a greater capacity? but also dont have to buy a costly charger specific to lithium is that correct?
@@alalal123421 I also would like to know the answer to this
Revisiting this episode a year later, I still rate it an AA.
Thanks for the feedback.

Forget "Consumer Reports" when you have Project Farm!
Consumer reports is massively corrupt.
Thanks for the nice comment!
@@natethegr8230 if it was corrupt, VW, ford and GM would be a lot higher rated than they are but fortunately they are not. I say that because they are pretty much the biggest producers worldwide of cars
@@natethegr8230, how so? A lot of people confuse "Consumer Reports", with the others such as Consumers Guide, Consumers Digest, etc. "Consumer Reports" has a stellar reputation, though they are not as good as they used to be; I'm sure due to internet reviewers taking up the responsibility they used to do.
PF have good ratings because he show the actual testing and results, which is very entertaining. Consumer Report is more political, because they can be suited massively if they are too biased? I'm a Consumer Report subscriber , and they will get you in the ballpark for your shopping selections.
I'd rather watch this than the Super Bowl.
Hi David, Thank you very much! Hope you have a great week!
This right here
Agreed.
A great comment. I highly agree.
Agree. Might be because I’m a patriots fan though lol
In future battery videos, for both rechargeable and non-rechargeable, it'd be great to see a few other tests. 1) How well they perform after and/or during being exposed to heat or cold. 2) How well non-rechargeable batteries perform and how many cycles they last using specialty battery chargers designed for non-rechargeables. (Yes, those work and are safe if you follow the guidelines.) 3) How many cycles the standard rechargeable batteries last and how well they perform up till the end. And, finally, 4) How many joules can the batteries survive? For example, if there's a surge while charging or short circuit from device usage.
Thanks for the video idea.
This testing methodology is insane. Love that you purchased a fan for each battery to run them all at once.
Thanks!
Forget the Super Bowl pregame, I'm watching some Project Farm testing!
Yeah
Project farm is WAY better then the super bowl!

@@ProjectFarm DEFINITELY! Dude, you rock! I frequently check your videos before buying tools or other equipment.
Love this channel. No long drawn out crap, just straight down to the business of what we need to know. You just gained another sub.
Thank you!
I ABSOLUTELY love the way you put (chapters) for each different brand of battery. So after I look at the results of the test, I can go back to the specific brand I warm up to. It all happened all at the same moment. I had this thought. I'm gonna tell him that a chapter for each item type, would probably be well appreciated. And I look, and lo. You thought of it before me. So, cheerio.
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
How In the universe did I just find this channel recently. You are one of the most honest, nicest, straight forward youtubers that I have ever seen. These videos really give me a lot of insight on what product brands to buy! Thank you so much for making these.

With 280 million views making these videos would provide a good part of the income, so my guess.
If you are good at reviewing and do not accept bribes, then people will trust you. I must say that I am often surprised about how well he extracts what are the essential questions for the products, and knows how to find that out the answers. Then presents it in ways that almost everyone can understand.
My criticism would be two points:
- in the last time the speaking speed increased too much
- the product bias is naturally US
@@etj4299 That'll work!
I really like how thorough you are with your testing. Thank you for making these videos.
Thank you!
Thank you for your testing! I had to sift through the german Amazon to find any of those, but i settled on the Blackube, as all the others that i could find had stupid long delivery times.
What i would appreciate though, would be an overview screen with all the values tested, that would be quite nice to have after watching and hearing your opinion

Again that is a impressive rapid fire of no nonsense information.
I really appreciate the long term update about the NiMh cells.
While considering to give other brands than eneloop a try, I only got one set of varta cells for a project where I was not sure if I see the thing again.

Glad to see Project Farm is a metric dude, millimeters and grams, hope America will follow him someday!
I'm good with my US Customary units. Metric has absolutely nothing to offer me. So why would I ever use it?
Never gonna happen. Our infrastructure is imperial. We've also been to outer space more than anyone else. So put that in your pipe and smoke it
@@davewolf8869 there's a lot of ignorance surrounding systems of measurement. It is often displayed by calling US Customary Imperial. Imperial didn't even come to be until 1836. The US developed our system in 1789. We borrowed names from the ancient system but that's it. We may have used a liquid measure but then the Empire adopted another measurement? I can't remember all the details myself. Then at some later date we all adopted the international inch. Which only further confuses people as to what came from where. The inch we use today is neither the old US nor Imperial one. A Swede actually made it. He made the best inches in the world so everyone beat a path to his door. Ford ultimately bought the guy and imported him to the USA. When you're as rich as Ford was you could do that sort of thing.
I want to go to the metric system as well so it's easy to do math with measurements, and it works better conceptually. I don't understand the meaning of the metric system intuitively but I do use it often. Perhaps I should just switch to Celsius and get used to it. It would be hard for a while but I could easily learn.
@@beez1717 metric has no advantages making measurements. There are supposedly some advantages to metric making conversions. Although we have computers today that can perform those calculations for us. So that benefit is less critical. Essentially there's an app for that.
Thank you for this excellent video. The comparison of the many brands out there was very helpful. Carry On Sir!

Omg !!! Is this the one that I requested? Probably a bunch of other people as well I'm sure, but I remember when I mentioned this one. Btw the usb chargable batteries are kinda cool.
Yes and have less space for battery
Thanks for the recommendation for this test.
USB chargeable has a convenience factor, but it's also a point of failure.
Very cool, but I get the impression that they are all Chinese brands not technically allowed to be sold here. Probably not FCC licensed or whatever. Still, they are cool and I am open to trying one of them.
I lose a lot of charging devices.. So yes. Convenient for sure.
I would have loved these as a kid with my gameboy back in the day
Was just thinking the same thing. Well, I can enjoy it now, lol. We sure as hell know kids these days wouldn’t go near a Gameboy since they have their ipads and such.
My Gameboy color woulda never had a break.

This is hands down the best testing video I’ve seen on the tube. 👏👏👏 keep up the amazing work. I’ve been having a hard time finding rechargables with a decent voltage. Now I’m going to try Amptorrent. Thank you!
Thanks, will do!
Your videos are always over the top in quality. Props as always.
I appreciate that! Thanks!
Thank you for the testing and great insight as always. I would have liked a few more charts on the results, for example mAh/$ comparison for the li-ion batteries, and a ranking of % capacity lost for the NiMH. In general a bit more time spent on analysing the results would be great :)
You are welcome. Thanks for the constructive feedback.
I agree on the % lost for the NiMH batteries. Duracell had the most after two years, but it started out with the most. Which one had the highest % of retained energy? That would be even more useful to know.
I agree, and that’s something I remember liking about this channel when it was much younger. We as consumers aren’t always just chasing the highest performance, especially if an item exists in a realm where high performance isn’t a necessity for us. What we look for in these cases is how much value a product really provides us. Thanks to your channel we’ve learned manufacturers don’t always tell us the truth about the performance so we have to rely on the good testing and evaluations you do!
Maybe a good idea for added content for Patreon subscribers - they could be given access to the raw data and charts
A cost-per-amp table (and/or cost-per-runtime) would be a nice addition.
Your work is incredible, Love your videos and Thank You for helping us out.

I’d love to see an air purifier comparison. There are not a lot of unbiased tests comparing different brands
Thanks for the video idea.
Yes, ozone generator air purifier
I'd really like to see an in-room portable "HEPA" filter/purifier test, where protection factor (or percent filtration) of airborne particles 0.3μm in diameter is measured, as well as airflow rate.
Also, I'd really appreciate if you could include a home made 24" 7000+ CFM rated wideblade fan, combined with a Lennox X6675 MERV 16 (95%) filter taped directly together with no obvious leaks (I believe this will be one of the most effective AND most cost effective filtration devices for Covid).
Although we keep hoping Covid is over, for those of us with compromised health and an endless supply of Covid variants, we will likely be relying on filtration technology to keep us safe for the foreseeable future.
Yeah that would be great and just in time for allergy season.
As always a great review! I've been thinking about rechargeable batteries as I had the EBLs before and unimpressed. Awesome job. TOP TH-cam channel!

This video reminds me that I would like to see a shootout on rechargeable headlamps. Milwaukee, Klein, Energizer, and Craftsman are my brand recommendations to test since they can be store bought
And, since we now know which batteries are the best, why not also include the best rechargeable batteries into something like a black diamond spot.
Thanks for the video idea.
Streamlight have been good to me
I have the Black Diamond Storm headlamp and was watching this to figure out which triple As might be best for that. I figured the AA performance would be mirrored in the AAAs
I've had a bunch of those crap out on me, but my black diamonds are going strong.
"Safeloop" - wonder what they were going for there... hmm... an interesting test would be to take these and put them on a NiMH charger to see which are smart enough to deal with that - since that could easily accidentally happen. The high voltage drop under load and, high cut-off voltage along with the high price will have me sticking to NiMH for a while.
LOL, poor attempt at piggybacking on Eneloop. I think most of the Lithiums have a batt protection along with the usb, so doubt they'd die. But then considering who is making them, that might be a good test after all.
Thanks for the feedback.
@@boots7859 "I think most of the Lithiums have a batt protection"
You would be surprised at some of the shit on the market. I can't remember the exact term, but I think there are "regulated" and "unregulated" 18650 cells. The unregulated ones have no intelligence to them. They'll discharge as much as you want and they'll overcharge as much as you want. They have better performance but they're also bigger fire hazards. The lower cost of making them gives companies an incentive to market their cells as regulated but not actually putting any kind of electronic regulation on them.
@@shawn576 “protected” is actually the proper term funny enough lol.
Same here. The 1.5v is nice but for most things other than incandescent flashlights eneloops work fine and have been the most trouble-free for me. Or "eneloop pro" for a few things that benefit from the higher mAH. There's also a wider assortment of chargers and I charge in banks of 8 without having to fuss with little USB cords. If these progress to where Sony, Panasonic or LG start making them I'll be more inclined to try. But... "Pownergy"? "Safeloop"? -- no thanks.
I stopped by because I needed to find the best rechargeable and I just knew you'd have a battery evaluation. Thank you!
