Ownership verified by DX Batteries work great!

Pros: Pros: Great price, they hold a charge quite well, I have found no difference between these and 2500 mAH version (SKU 5790). I haven't done an academic test between the two though, but for all intensive purposes, they work great!

Cons: Cons: Always worried that a fire could start while they're charging, so I only charge these when I'm at home-Better safe than sorry.
I keep them in a protective case (18074) to make sure nothing metallic causes a short while they're in my bag.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: They work great, no complaints with them yet-hold a charge for quite a while. Thanks to Dealextreme for offering a great price on these!

Ownership verified by DX Not bad at all!

Pros: Very acceptable price, capacity is quite good (hasn't needed charging once in my laser, though I have been using for several weeks), build quality OK, and overall very good.

Cons: Its base is getting worn away slightly by the spring of my laser - it now has a nice deep ring gouged in it. Also, the label feels a little cheap, but this is to be expected. Other than this, no issues at all - though I haven't read the text, you may expect to find some spelling errors.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Cheap, cheerful rechargable and protected batteries that really deliver a punch!

Pros: Very well constructed battery. Came with 3.8V
Came with good packaging.
Seems to provide an even amount of power as my torch didn't dim after a few minutes.

Cons: None found yet.
500 word limit is too long for a battery :P

Other Thoughts: Provided a good fit in my flashlight SKU 12623
Haven't used it long enough to charge it fully yet. But hopefully it all works good.

Bottomline: Get some battery cases to store your batteries in.
Great product. Definitely buy this one as it has the most protection (over charge, undercharge, shorting)

Ownership verified by DX Works as advertised

Pros: All I can say is they work as advertised. I needed batteries for an electronics project and these guys had the best capacity to price ratio I could find anywhere. The discharge/overcharge and short-circuit protection also meant I didn't have to design additional protection circuitry.

Cons: No cons about the batteries themselves, it was just very difficult to get a battery holder for them. In the end I ended up getting two AA battery clips. The Trustfires were a little big, but they fit, I just had to space the clips the right length apart on the PCB.

Other Thoughts: I wish I could have tested and verified their capacity, but they were unfortunately stolen before I could do that. All I can say is I used them in an application requiring about 300mA, and they lasted for quite a while before needing a recharge.

Bottomline: Get them if you need Li-Ions, use AA battery clips on a custom PCB as battery holder.
