I couldn’t resist – and, prompted by the reviews below expressing concerns about the need to use only the supplied ‘hydracable’ for charging – I took it apart and cut it up. I can reassure everyone that it really is just a matter of connectors joined by a wire – that is, two strands (only one of which is copper): O). Only the outer USB-A power connectors are connected, and these are routed to the USB-C ‘heads’, where there is just a small circuit board with no components. All the electronics are housed within the cell itself and undoubtedly ensure both the stabilisation of the 1.5 V output voltage and the charge control. There can be no communication between the electronic components in the article and the charger (the communication pins are not in use; all four ‘heads’ are connected to a single point). So, undoubtedly, only what is stated in the leaflet applies: Standard charging: 5V and 4 x 0.5 A max. And just about any USB-A to USB-C cable will do the job. In the context of the other warnings in the leaflet, this is simply a typical attempt by the manufacturer to distance itself from those who swallow batteries and stick wires into sockets.
voltage of 1.5 V compared to NiMH
universal charging connector – I can easily charge it from a power bank or a borrowed charger
constant voltage until it cuts out
It is not possible to tell how much capacity is left (the voltage does not drop), but this may actually be an advantage
not a particularly high capacity (500 mAh) compared to disposable lithium cells
I've only had it for a short time. Time will tell if it is more profitable to buy this variant or classic rechargeable batteries for the charger. Included cable with the ability to recharge the entire battery pack at the same time.
A perfect review of these articles has already been written here by Jiří from Brno. It perfectly sums up almost everything that can be written about them, so I won't repeat it here, and will only mention what he didn't elaborate on: this is a disadvantage that I am not sure how relevant it really is. BATTERY RECHARGE IS ALSO ONLY ALLOWED BY THE SUPPLIED CABLE, but I am not clear why. The cable does not show any signs of limiting the charging current to the battery (but maybe I'm wrong! ). In addition, the same 4x cable comes with both the AA and AAA variant, visually it is not distinguishable which is for which variant, although each has a different charging current. If the charging is controlled by the circuit inside the battery, the command to use the origo cable makes no sense. The only thing I can think of is that modern chargers can change the output by changing the output voltage, and connecting a voltage higher than 5V would probably be the death of these batteries. However, even such chargers will only allow higher voltages after they have "sniffed" the compatibility of the connected device. I don't know.
almost all pluses, all nicely summed up by Jiří from Brno
recharging is "allowed" only with the supplied cable
possible replacement of the cable with a variant for AA
