I've got a Transistor Pack E that needs 6 C batteries. Anyone know of a low self-discharge (hybrid) C battery? I've only found AA and AAA's, except for this one made by AccuEvolution:

I know Sanyo was supposed to be coming out with C and D cell eneloops but I dont know if they are out yet or not. Check out thomasdistributing.com and see what they have in the C cells.

I have these

for some wireless outdoor stereo speakers. They arrived with a charge in them, but I did charge them initially before use. I purchased a few months ago from another source that was having a special sale, at about half the price in the Thomas Distributing ad.

I wish my Maha C-9000 would charge C and D cells!

I have seen converters where you can put AA eneloops into and convert to a C or D.

But then you lose the higher capacity advantage of C cells.

The C and D Eneloops hit the market in Japan on 9/12. I'm not sure when we'll see them in the US. Anyone know?

Nope!
Charges Battery Types: AA & AAA NiCd and NiMH

It has adapters which can turn AA batteries into a form factor which requires C and D cell types!

Yes, that is true, BUT the La Crosse is NOT the Maha! ;)

I'd be happy with either one. Can't find either in Korea.:(
