I had bought a set of these and had noticed that it said precharged. Didn't think much of it until today, and then I took a closer look. hmm... capacity is 2000mah just like eneloops instead of 2650 of other duracell rechargeables. So I went online to the duracell website to check them out. Sure enough, they only lose about 2% of their charge every month.
So, for those that may need batteries and either don't feel like ordering eneloops or need them in a hurry, these seem to be around at regular retailers. I did read a little post from someone who had good experiences with them.
Here is the site link where they describe them:

Also, I love my new Maha MH-C9000 - thanks to those who helped me decide on that one.
