SCIGOLD AA Family Bundle · 8 cells + Home Case
Eight cells. One charger for all of them.
Eight 4,440 mWh cells, and a Home Case that charges all eight at once from one USB-C cable.
Inside the Family Bundle
The household's AA supply, in one box.
Eight 4,440 mWh cells and the 8-slot Home Case, $12.99 less than buying them separately. The capacity of this cell model is SGS-measured.
The bundle
8 cells + Home Case.
Eight SCIGOLD AA 1.5V Li-ion cells, the 8-slot Home Charging Case in titanium silver, a braided 1 m USB-C cable and a user guide.
$73.99, against $86.98 for the 8-pack ($49.99) and a Home Case ($36.99) bought separately.
Charge all eight
All eight at once.
The cells have no charging port of their own; the Home Case charges them. Drop in all eight, close the lid, plug one USB-C cable into a 5V/3A source, and a full case takes about 2.5 hours.
Each slot is managed on its own, with its own LED, so a partial load charges without affecting the other slots.
4,440 mWh
4,440 mWh per cell.
About 2,960 mAh at 1.5V, measured by SGS under the IEC 61960-3 method at 23 °C ± 2 °C. Across all eight cells, 35,520 mWh.
Other brands self-report their capacity; the competitor figures below are manufacturer-reported.
- The highest capacity rechargeable AA we have found, and the only one whose capacity is SGS-measured
- 32% more than the best NiMH AA (3,360 mWh)
Steady 1.5V
1.5V for most of the charge.
A built-in regulator holds the output at about 1.5V, the voltage AA devices expect from an alkaline, for most of the charge. Near empty it drops to about 1V. A 1.2V NiMH cell starts lower and sags as it drains.
Our published test summary reports at least 70% capacity retention after 1,600 full charge and discharge cycles under standardized test conditions. Actual battery life varies with use, charging and storage.
Household hub
Built to stay home.
A coffee-mug-sized aluminum-alloy cylinder, 72.9 × 77.4 × 55.2 mm and 109 g, built as the household hub. The slim Pocket Case (CW505) in the AA Kit is the travel charger.
The slots also take AAA, in any mix with AA. SCIGOLD AAA cells are not sold yet.
Why the bundle
One charger for the whole supply.
Save $12.99
$73.99, against $86.98 for the 8-pack ($49.99) and a Home Case ($36.99) bought separately.

Compatibility
Works with what you already own.
- Gaming
- Xbox controllers and other game controllers that take AA.
- Photography
- Digital cameras and camera flashes that take AA.
- Around the house
- TV remotes and kids' toys.
- Not for
- Smart locks and Blink cameras. Schlage, August, Yale and Kwikset advise against rechargeable AAs in their locks, and Blink specifies non-rechargeable lithium AAs. For any other device, check its manual.
- Charger power
- A USB-C source that supplies 5V/3A: a USB-C wall charger, a laptop's USB-C port, a power bank or a car charger.
Good to know
- The cells have no charging port of their own. They charge only in the Home Case or the Pocket Case (CW505).
- A full case takes about 2.5 hours from a 5V/3A USB-C source.
- The cells are certified to UN 38.3 and IEC 62133-2.
- Only need four cells? The AA Kit (4 cells + Pocket Case) is $55.99.
- Not recommended for smoke or CO alarms — use the battery type your alarm's manual specifies.
Specs & details
Every number, in one place.
The Household Kit.

The Family Bundle solves it: 8 cells + 1 Home Charging Case that holds all 8 at once. Drop them in, plug one USB-C cable, walk away. About 2.5 hours later your entire household’s AA supply is full.

When to Get It
- ✓ Household with 8+ AA-powered devices
- ✓ Want one charger that handles your whole AA supply at once
- ✓ Want a charger that stays home as the household hub (the slim Pocket Case is the travel charger)
- ✓ Gamers, photographers, parents — anyone who runs out of AAs constantly

Why the Home Case Instead of the 4-Slot Pocket Case
The AA Kit comes with the 4-slot Pocket Case, made for everyday carry. The Home Case is its bigger sibling for the household:
| Spec | 4-Slot Pocket Case (in the AA Kit) | 8-Slot Home Case (in this bundle) |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 4 cells | 8 cells (AA / AAA mixed) |
| Display | Per-cell LCD | Per-slot LED |
| Form | Slim flip-lid | Coffee-mug cylinder |
| Use case | Travel, daily-carry | Household hub |

How It Works
Full in about 2.5 hours. Four steps.
-
Drop the cells into the charger
Place your SCIGOLD AA 1.5V Li-ion cells into the 4-slot Pocket Case (CW505) or the 8-slot Home Case (CW508), matching the + and − terminals shown in each slot.
-
Connect a 5V/3A USB-C source
Plug a USB-C cable into the case and connect it to a 5V/3A USB-C source — a phone wall charger, laptop USB-C port, GaN brick, power bank, or car charger. No proprietary adapter needed.
-
Watch the per-cell status display
The Pocket Case's LCD or the Home Case's per-slot LED shows each cell charging independently. A nearly empty cell and a half-full one each charge on their own and stop when full.
-
Done in about 2.5 hours
A full case of cells goes from empty to full in about 2.5 hours from a 5V/3A source. Charging stops automatically when each cell is full. Unplug the case once charging is done; the cells can stay in it for storage and travel.
