(SPOT.ph) Batteries power so many household items and portable essentials, so much so that having extras around the house is a must. Unlike phones which can be charged straight from a cord or through a power bank over and over again, most batteries are one-time use only, meaning you have to buy a fresh pack once all the power is out. Imagine all the time and money you’d save if you could replenish the power traditional AA and AAA batteries held. Well, there’s no need to make-believe because rechargeable batteries are a thing and they’re available on Lazada.

Where to buy a rechargeable battery

These rechargeable AAA batteries from UME ONE have a capacity of 550 mWh, a voltage of 1.5V, can be charged up to 1,200 times, and regain juice through a built-in USB-C recharge port. A set costs P358 comes with two batteries and cord that can charge two units at the same time. Since the port is built into the battery’s body, you won’t need any adapters or docks to recharge the battery once it’s been drained.

Just like your phone, you can plug it straight from the socket, or even use a power bank or your laptop to recharge it. You’ll need about 1 hour and 30 minutes to charge it completely—you’ll know it’s fully powered once the red light stops blinking.

UME ONE also sells rechargeable AA batteries from the same manufacturer for P357 in case you’re looking for a bigger battery. Take the time to browse the online store, as it carries other types of rechargeable batteries, charging docks, and cords.

Battery life depends on the device or item you plug the unit into, with bigger things like detectors and lights depleting power much faster than simple objects like calculators or remotes.

As always, read the voltage and power requirements of your devices and make sure it’s a match, lest you run the risk of permanently damaging the item or the battery. Like most lithium batteries, you'll need to replace them someday, but it definitely reduces the waste.

Rechargeable batteries are available on Lazada.
