Pros: does the job it is asked
Charge on my charger without any issue
nice green, really give the nce "no-name feeling xD


Cons: do not use those batteries on very demanding devices such as cameras, their battery life is tooo poor and you would run out of battery way too soon


Other Thoughts: they work fine but since they are cheap do not ask them too much!
They are perfect for wireles mice or remotes


Bottomline: Not great batteries, but you can save a lot of money by using them for everyday items such as remotes and mouse of computer etc...


OK for small things, otherwise look elsewhere

Pros: Fairly cheap, and are in tolerances with AAA dimensions.


Cons: LOW CAPACITY! I measured these on a Lacrosse BC900 and the actual useful capacity were around 100-130 mAh. Useless, except for TV remote controls or other low power devices. I used these in a PS2 wireless controller and they were discharged within an hour. Once a significant load is put on the cell, the voltage plummets like a rock.


Bottomline: Only buy these if you plan on using it for a remote control or other non-essential devices, like a cheapo flashlight or radio. I wouldn't trust these to last more than a month without discharging themselves.

Pros: + They maybe the cheapest rechargeable batteries around
+ Good enough for low-draining devices


Cons: - Definitely below the stated capacity
- One was dead on arrival
- They have uneven outer layer, I have problem fitting them into a flashlight (2 are ok and another 2 have more surface protrusion)
- Self-discharge very quickly


Other Thoughts: These batteries are only good for devices that don't draw too much power such as clocks, remote controls, cheap flashlights, etc. Don't charge them and keep for too long before use as they will self-discharge very fast.


Bottomline: If you always need to change batteries for your low draining devices and don't like to spend too much on rechargeables, these are good enough for your needs. But if you want reliability, get better batteries.


GREAT

~Holds a good charge, lasted in my laser for quite a while before i had to charge them again.
~Goes anywhere a normal AAA would.
~Pretty durable, i haven't had any trouble with the plastic pealing or dents.
~Fast charging (in my charger).


Cons: ~The wrappers on them are kinda cheap but thats all i can think of, besides that they are great little batteries.


Other Thoughts: Can't really think of anything.


Bottomline: All in all their great batteries fore the price your paying.
