Pros: Well, they work as normal AAA. They are cheap. The weight is very low, if you don't have the power to lift normal good batteries.
Cons: Tried them in my BC-900 charger.
And I was very surprised.
The result were 134 111 136 152 mah
The second time it was 153 121 145 165
The third time it was somewhat in between.
They have 1/8 capacity of the soshine batteries and cost only half. Why in all what is holy for me, does DX sell something so NOT usefull. Complete waste of money!!!
Other Thoughts: How other people can give these more than one star is a complete mistery for me.
I hope they remove these batteries from the site.
Bottomline: Don't buy the batteries!. You will be sadly disappointed!
They work well but discharge quickly.

Pros: In English:
These batteries are very cheap and work well, here in Brazil they would cost more than U$ 10 bucks a pair. But I think they discharge quickly than Sony's batteries. The price compensates I think. I'd also comment that the cover is not so resistant, take care with knifes and sharp objects avoiding to remove the cover accidentally. One thing that I notice is that the batteries can be used in low charge devices, like remote controllers, even if they discharge in the digital camera, it seems some charge still remain in the batteries.
In portuguese / Em português:
Essas baterias são muito baratas e funcionam bem, aqui no Brazil elas custariam mais de R$ 20 um par. Mas eu acho que elas descarregam mais rápido do que as baterias da Sony, compensando pelo preço. Eu comentaria também que a capa não é tão resistente, cuidado com objetos pontiagudos como facas, evitando remover a capa acidentalmente. Uma coisa que eu reparei é que as baterias podem ser usadas em dispositivos que não precisam de tanta carga, como controles remotos, mesmo se elas descarregarem na camera digital, parece-me que alguma carga ainda restou nas baterias.
Cons: In English:
These batteries discharge quickly, so you will need to have a charger close to you, because they only will work for a couple hours. Remember which pair of the batteries you are using, do not mix them or probably you will lost battery charge. I'd also comment that the cover is not so resistant, take care with knifes and sharp objects avoiding to remove the cover accidentally, or they will be very ugly ad you will not identify them. I do not think they will resist so long, but for this price I can not expect anything different.
In portuguese / Em português:
Estas baterias descarregam rapidamente, então você precisará de um carregador em mãos, pois elas funcionarão somente durante algumas horas. Se lembre qual par de baterias você está usando, não misture-as ou provavelmente você perderá carga da bateria. Eu comentaria também que a capa não é tão resistente, cuidado com objetos pontiagudos como facas, evitando remover a capa acidentalmente, ou elas ficarão prateadas e sem identificação. Eu não acho que elas durarão tanto, mas por este preço eu não esperaria nada diferente.
Bottomline: BUY THOSE BATTERIES, DX PRICES ARE AWESOME!!!
COMPRE ESSAS BATERIAS, OS PREÇOS DA DX SÃO EXCELENTES!!!
great for cordless phones that use AAA

Pros: I put these in my cordless phone and they do the job , i.e. keeping the phone powered. alternate batteries here in australia cost at least 2 - 3 times the price, so these were good.
I usually put my cordless phone back on its base within an hour or 4 and they have never gone flat ion that time
Cons: none really.
for the job I wanted them for they do very well.
Other Thoughts: none really.
it is always good to remember how much you are paying for something and the intention/use of it.
e.g. don't buy something weak if you are going to use it heavily.
Bottomline: great batteries to replace my previous cordless phone batteries.
low cost and have done no wrong by me yet.
Great buy!

Pros: - Great price(!)
- Good build quality...
- Kind of cool colour...
Cons: - Probably not great for high-powered devices...
Other Thoughts: In Norway rechargeable batteries cost about 150 norwegian kroner, or 24 USD, so these are MUTCH cheaper... I'll buy more of these when I need new batteries!
Bottomline: I really recomend you to buy these if you need batteries. Mutch cheaper than anywhere else, and just as good...
Tra tala.. I''just push my keys on the rest of the space... By the way: did you know that in the Norwegian alphabet we have three more letters than in the English? They are Æ Ø and Å... Well well.. I guess I've written enough now...
