Supposedly IKEA LADDA batteries are rebranded Eneloops. It's not official, but the capacity and and discharge curves are the same:

That's interesting. My first thought was it's probably another of those things that IKEA sells everywhere except Australia - but happily the LADDAs are available here.

Though with one small caveat - the white LADDAs evidently come out of the same Japan factory that makes almost all the other good eneloops, but the brown LADDAs are known to come out of PRC, and don't exhibit the same quality.

Bought the IKEA charger because it was so slick and compact. Very happy with both charger and batteries, can recommend. Crazy low price as well, but to me that wasn't a factor.
