After three full discharges in Jetbeam PA40 and three charges in MQR-06 their performance great and I'm satisfied.

I have about 180, 1500 Eneloops and I just bought 12 of the XX's specifically for my electric sox - yes, really, electric sox. I get very cold feet. Run time on low went from about 6 hrs to 8 hrs. With the 6 hr run time and my schedule, I had to change to a second set each day. With the XX's, one set a day. So in this case, it was worth the cost.
Just picked up a 4 pack of these and figured I would test them out. LSD with higher capacity seems the best of both worlds on paper anyway. As far as having less charging cycles, my thinking is that if I charge them once per week I wouldn't use up the 300 cycles for almost 6 years. In reality I doubt I would be charging as frequently as once per week.
My Powerex MH-C9000 charger results
2407 mah
2422 mah
2406 mah
2390 mah
I first ran a discharge cycle, then used the "cycle" feature with a charge rate of 1000 ma and a discharge rate of 500 ma. I did not run a full break in cycle. The final charge cycle ran for about 315 minutes.

Thanks for the detailed and extensive information, although there is one thing I'm trying to resolve and can't find the right information' so.....I'm appealing to anyone who can answer my question, I have SANYO XX 2500mA and just recently purchased Panasonic Pro 2450mA, my question is, can I mix these batteries in the one device and more importantly can I mix these batteries in a charger, I'm using the Maha 8 cell 1A per cell charger
In May 2014 I purchased two four packs of Eneloop XX cells from Dell.
These have been used on a regular basis for the last 2 years in Garmin handheld GPS devices.
The cells have probably seen about 60 cycles over the 2 years.
Over the last two weekends I discharged them and then performed a Break-in on my Maha C-9000 charger (cells are normally charged with a Maha C800S charger at 1A).
I was surprised to see that all 8 cells showed capacities in the low to mid 2300 mAh range. I was expecting them all to be above the 2400 mAh range.
