Eneloops normally state a minimum capacity so these should beat 800mah ones on other brands.
Plus, 2100 real charge cycles makes them highly stable(low on contaminants forming inside) so they are the most likely ones to last years.
Higher capacity Pros are also available, at cost of price and a 500 cycle longevity.

I looked in a Maplins store yesterday - and everything is grossly overpriced, apart from a few special offer items. I fail to see how they continue in business, when you can buy virtually everything cheaper elsewhere.

Can you recommend an alternative?

All my AA 1900mah Eneloop still report a charge of near or above 2000mah (I have no Eneloop AAA)
These also retain 70% charge over 5 years making them almost Alkaline like.

I have Maplin gift card. Im that type of person that spends gift card the minute i get it. Maplin gift card is still full 9 months later. I just can't justify paying their rip-off prices.

It's a high street chain. Never underestimate the power of the impulse buy.

I have absolute loads of Eneloops. I've recently bought some Powerex for a Logitech Keyboard and mouse as they are higher capacity.
Does the keyboard and mouse really gobble up batteries and need them charging every couple of days? If not then those batteries really aren't the way to go as they're not low self-discharge.

Its not really anything considerably cheaper than more reputable good performance mainstream brands such as Energiser or Duracell.
