Pros: A Very nice item, comes handy and for good price too. It can be of use in several cases when you or your friends need it. The price is very logical and you can buy as many as you want to give away as gifts. Well built you will not have big problems with that. It is one of the items that Deal Extreme can be proud! Every time I am wondering of the variety of items that Deal Extreme is selling!

Cons: Might be better in plastic quality. I cannot think of any other cons.

Bottomline: You get more than you pay, that is for sure!

Turn AAA batteries into AA's

Pros: -Easy to use, just open it up, slip the battery in, and close it again.
 
Cons: -The metal piece can fall in if you aren't careful, and it's tricky to put it back in place.
-Slightly thicker than an AA battery, they might not fit every battery compartment.
-An AAA battery cannot supply as much current as an AA so these might not work depending on what you're trying to power with them.
 
Other Thoughts:  
Bottomline: These are useful for do-it-yourself lovers (high-powered flashlights, RC-model planes, etc.)

Pros: They work.
They are cheap for an 8 pack. 
Cons: They are a touch thicker than some of my AA rechargeables.  Items which fit the battery tightly may not work with them.
Some of them are a little fussy to get open or closed around the battery. 
Other Thoughts: Obviously you don't have the energy capacity of a AA.  When getting a device going now is more important than how long it will last, these are great. 
Bottomline: They have saved me twice when I had AAA charged and needed a AA battery.  Worth what I paid already.  I keep a stash of them in the bag with my soshine emergency power charger (sku 3205) so I can pull the batteries for other uses. 
					

does the job but watch out with flashlights

Pros: does indeed transforms a AAA into a AA size battery.
the latest ones shipped arre the ones made out of transparent plastic
they have a spring inside which i like instead of an open bottom. this because i use them for 10440 batteries
10440 batteries have a bit of platic on the bottom so with these converters you do not have any problems 
Cons: diameter is a bit more then regular AA so these will not fit any flashlight i think
the inside of the + pole is indeed partially covered with plastic
looks like a production error but can be removed easilly. 
Other Thoughts:  
Bottomline: if you need these for NON flashlight related stuff buy them
otherwise they will not fit
