Video showing heavy flour in AA batteries: any way for layman to test NiMH batteries?

Yeah, interestingly low discharge is also described as low self-discharge,
indicating that they will discharge THEMSELVES if left alone and turned off.
** Low self discharge implies the opposite.
The self discharge of regular NiMH cells is quite high compared to Alkaline
cells - leave them for a few weeks to a couple of months and most of the
energy is gone.
IIFC, Eneloop claim up to 12 months with 80% retention.
Neither of which has any bearing when used with cordless phones.
