Pros: These are really good low discharge batteries, and they are also a brand name, GP. Cheaper than in stores and eBay by ~$5.
Cons: The build quality is slightly worse than Sanyo Eneloops. The 'wrap' (or w/e you call it) that is around the battery can be peeled off easily, and it looks like the entire thing can be pulled apart.
Other Thoughts: Package comes in chinese, not english, doesnt really matter...
Bottomline: Get THESE if you need LSD batteries, a much better price than sanyo eneloops, work just as well.
Pros: Bought them for a remote and a wireless keyboard. They last really long compared to the other batteries, especially in the remote, I don't suspect I'll have to switch them any time soon.
Cons: None. These are a genuine product, and work really well. I didn't encounter any weird issues, they work just perfect. They last a lot longer than the batteries I've used before.
Other Thoughts: None!
Bottomline: Good stuff right here. Definitely a must buy if you need long lasting batteries.
Pros: Low Self Discharge so you're batteries always have enough power for the job however long the batteries are not used (within limits of course) Even after a year the batteries retain most of the charge.Ready to use straight from the package from China, even for low current consuming devices
Cons: Maybe a little bit high price but what the heck these are including shipping so you won't even have to get out if the house to get these
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: The rechargeable batteries for the future, much better than standard NiMH or Ni-Cad.
Pros: LSD batteries.Price is very good, here these batteries cost 2-3 times more!All batteries arrived precharged between 1.20-1.25 V (lower than GSYuasa sku.19278 which arrived charged at 1.31 V)Rated 820 mAh typical capacity on the battery.After I performed a 39 hour break-in test with Maha Powerex MH-C9000 charger, the results were great - 925, 934, 903, 909 mAh DISCHARGE capacity. The test included 16 hour slow charge at 90 mA per battery, 1 hour rest, 5 hour discharge at 180 mA, 1 hour rest, 16 hours slow charge at 90 mA again. Average capacity of this set of batteries seems to be 918 mAh, but they cost 11.05 USD.
Cons: Higher relative price per 100 mAh compared to GSYuasa AAA ( sku.19278 ). GSYuasa cost 1.13 USD per 100 mAh, GP cost 1.20-1.26 USD per 100 mAh (resp. before and after the GP price drop) - calculated for 4 -pack.Cost 2.76 USD per piece against 2.10 USD per piece for GSYuasa.
Other Thoughts: Higher absolute price, higher relative price per mAh compared to GSYuasa.
Bottomline: GP Recyko 918 mAh for 2.76 USD (0.31 USD/100mAh) compared to GSYuasa 744 mAh for 2.10 USD (0.28 USD/100mAh) - it is your choice.Will definitely buy again and make more tests incl. check self-discharge level after a month or so.
