Few month ago I tested my luck by buying, two ANSMANN 8.4V 280mAh.
Both products demonstrate good performance at electrical tests, but both failed winning the title
of best choice for dimension sensitive applications.
Dimension sensitive application: They are a number of products out there, these having
a very narrow battery compartment.
Such a narrow battery compartment, this keeps compatibility with all 9V Alkaline (
metallic cage).
Unfortunately for us interested using a NiMH as Alkaline replacement, we facing tough times.
8.4V NiMH with narrowed down (Slim) dimensions, they are easy to be found, at smallest available capacity.
This period of time I decided to make one last experiment at my cost.Nedis BANM9HF91B this is widely available in Greece, and I just ordered one, so to test it mostly
regarding dimensions compatibility.
History facts:Nedis BANM9HF91B this is latest distributed product of Nedis (2018~2020~2026).
Nedis at
2015, they attempted selling NiMH cells under
HQ branding, for unknown reason
HQ branding this were abandoned.
Even so, all these 8.4V 250mAh NiMH, branded as
HQ or
Nedis, they have something in common, they appear as slightly thinner, according to few traces of product specifications, at seller's listings.
Nedis this changed
ownership few months ago, and no one knows for how long they will continue distributing NiMH Cells.
Currently they are the only brand in EU, with the offering of
two years warranty.
At the price of
10.90 € with VAT, I did not hesitate to pull the trigger, so to perform this review regarding it
compatibility, at dimension sensitive applications.
