Digital Home Thoughts: ReUSaBle Batteries

"We want some! We still adore our eneloop batteries that we haven’t had to charge in months, even though we use them almost daily, but we really admire the ingenuity of the ReUSaBle Batteries. When their juice starts to drain, simply plug them into any USB port or 250mA Ni-MH charger. An LED will let you know the status of the charge. A pair of the 2 x AA size batteries (1.2V at 1450mAh) will cost you $19.15, well worth the amount considering that they will eventually save you money and the planet."

Nice. I think it would be easier to re-charge these batteries because I almost always travel with my laptop so I can use it to recharge the batteries. Though I almost always forget (or find it annoying) to carry a separate battery charger. Also, wihle I don't have it now, one of my cell phone chargers used to have a USB slot at the end that plugs into the wall, so I wonder whether I could charge them that way too.
