Relatively to my Energizer 2300mAH batteries, its made, actual capacity, charger compatibility, and power recycle rate are a little disappointed. For example, the Energizer can sustain about 200 shoots on my Nikon SB800 camera flashlight, but this will only last a couple shoots before the power recycle wait time doubles.
*Update: These units are actually overrated batteries. Actual capacity of the AA batteries is about 800mAH, and about 350mAH for the AAA batteries. Do not use it on high power demanding devices. I tried them on my Palm Z21, Sony mp3 players, wireless mouse, shaver, and remote controls and these batteries are absolute adequate and last quite awhile. Also keep in mind that these batteries are not compatibility with all battery chargers out there, I can get them charged on
GEDIGEN batteries USB charger, but not the other two cheaper battery chargers I owned.

Pros: none, really none
Cons: Bought 3 sets = 12 batteries.
Arrived almost empty. Ok no problem. Are rechargeable. After the first charge at < 1/20 C over 24 hours, 4 batteries were out. For the others even not possible to determine the capacity as quick they were empty. Tried to charge a second time in the same conditions. Only 4 batteries left, the others near 0 Volts.
Bottomline: Sorry, but don't buy. Never saw a worst battery quality and I use a lot of rechargeable batteries. Really unusable.

Pros: - The price is great;
- Build quality seems good enought;
Cons: - Not even close to 2500mAh;
- Doesn't hold the charge very long;
- Ugly appearence (but who cares?);
Other Thoughts: Ideal for clocks and remote controllers, though you need to recharge it quite often.
So far they are holding ok in my remotes and didn't leak yet, like others I've tried.
Bottomline: Don't buy this if you plan to use on MP3 players or others high-consumption devices.
Use them instead of normal AA batteries and help to save our planet :)
great but not for everything...

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...
