I take a lot of pictures. My cameras eat batteries like crazy. I love these batteries. As soon as these batteries die out I just charge them (4-5) hours and they are good as new. Normal batteries lasted me at most two days or so. With these batteries I can take pictures for days. Saves me tons of money. I bought several more packs of these and in different sizes too.
I bought a set of these batteries for my grand daughter's digital camera and they've been great. Kids will shoot and shoot so the cost of conventional batteries can add up real quick. A pack of these costs about as much as a couple sets of regular batteries. Don't forget to stock up on them for your Christmas presents.Cameras for Kids: Fun and Inexpensive Projects for the Little Photographer (Volume 1)Animal Portraits With The Digital Photography Of John Crippen: Learning Photography With Animals
First off, I would like to say that these batteries can NOT be used in the 15-minute chargers. The batteries worked great with the 9 hour charger, but very poorly with the 15 minute charger.Additionally, the voltage for these are 1.2v. You'll have to use the 8.5-9 hour chargers in order to charge them up to full capacity. I did some testing with my own charger and the 15 minute speed charger. Note that most non rechargeable AAA's are 1.5V, so you will be getting a lower voltage input. This is especially important for those who are using them for flashlights (reduced brightness) and those who are looking for a good 12V equivalent input for DIY projects (8x1.5=12V as opposed to 10*1.2v=12V, you would need 10 batteries as opposed to 8 in order to achieve a 12V input, for example)Regardless, these batteries, when treated right and if you know what they're best for are a very good deal.
Considering these are "name brand" batteries, I would have thought they would tend to perform better. I use MAHA smart chargers and these batteries still tend to 'die' (fail to hold a charge) relatively frequently.
there are many counterfeit and expired items out there on the internet. so far these batteries seem to be working as expected of typical Energizer rechargeables, it has been a month now.
