The best rechargeables around, bar none. And at only 30p more than the lowest ever price they've been sold at on Amazon.
Eneloop is the perfect, long-life, pre-charged, energy and money saving, recyclable rechargeable battery which can now be charged and discharged even up to 2100 times. Since its launch in November 2005 eneloop has revolutionized the consumer-use rechargeable battery segment with its unique features. Eneloop is a rechargeable battery that can be used as easily as a dry-cell battery, and reused simply by recharging it. It combines all advantages of a dry-cell battery and a rechargeable battery while also protecting the environment.
Bought the AA version of this battery for £5.99 I think from 7 day shop several months ago fantastic batteries that hold their charge well.

Only 750mah. Ok for the mouse and tv remote. If they have greater capacity batteries this would a great deal.

There are, of course, greater capacity rechargeable AAAs, but none of them are remotely as good as Eneloops - and none of them will allow 2100 recharges, or anywhere near it. There's no problem with the capacity for most purposes (LED Lenser torches for example) - you just need to change and charge them more often in high drain applications.

What type of chargers do people recommend for the Eneloops batteries? Will any kind work?

Most types will work, but these are particularly good batteries, capable of giving extremely good service over a long period of time if you treat them sensibly.
For that reason, I'd strongly recommend one of these two - ideally the second for its increased versatility at just £3 more (£22.99, as against £19.99). Both are very good, though, and both will preserve your batteries.
As antmatz said about, the XTAR VC4 is excellent for a plethora of different types of rechargeable batteries.

But you wouldnt use NiMH for LED torches.

I use an Eneloop AA NiMH in the little torch I keep in my pocket. It is 1.5 volt max so can't be used with li-ion and draws about 1.5 amps so an eneloop is ideal.

Someone's put together a nice comparison on the wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eneloop#AAA_size
So yes, there are Pro versions which are quite new and can hold 900/930 mAh but for that they only have about 500 charge cycles.
From the table these seem to be the 'Eneloop 4th generation' with 2,100 charge cycles and 90% after 1yr, and impressive 75% after 5 years storage.
