The Trail Cams show 75% immediately they installed and I also see they appear to be self draining when stored in proper 8 pack plastic holder
When charging now - I swap them around in the charger after the charger shows Full - they then keep charging more and leave on till charger is cold.

I was buying Lithium AA out of Germany at approx 40% of cost here - but last lot every 2nd pack of 4 was a dud - so thats when I went to the 6V Gels in Cams - got to expensive.
There are a lot of clone/fake product floating around these online sites like TM and EBay

Interesting. I have the black eneloop and they are the same. I will try swapping them around in the charger and see what happens.
