Even better would be if more devices used the lithium ion cylindrical cells. Higher power and energy density, while also being a standardized form factor that can be switched out as needed.
Comment on I'm so sick of dinky shitty devices with garbage rechargeable batteries
GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.ee 1 year agoI assume op was talking about rechargeable AAA batteries. At least then they’re hot swappable.

Key is standardisation, we should all move to li-ion but not at the cost of random shapes and non-swappable. Everything should have similar 3-4 form factor batteries and easily replaceable. Also the charging connector, everything should have USB c, barrel connector should be banned or be forced to just use one single size

Maybe in buying the wrong AAA batteries but I’m struggling to make them last longer than a few cycles

Sanyo Eneloops are great. I have some really old ones with a lot of cycles from my Xbox controller.

That sounds like you need better brand. when the inventor got 500 cycles on their patented design 60 years ago… en.wikipedia.org/…/Nickel–metal_hydride_battery
