Founded in 1947, Sanyo pioneered nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries in 1990, mass-produced lithium-ion batteries starting in 1994, and created the world's first lithium battery in 1975. At its peak in 2002, Sanyo held 41% of the global lithium-ion battery market – a testament to its unparalleled engineering excellence. Sanyo's legendary eneloop batteries revolutionized the industry with ultra-low self-discharge technology, retaining 85% of charge after one year and 70% after five years, and can be recharged over 1,000 times.
