powerful!! [Posted on 2008-03-21]
2500 mAh Energizer AA : These batteries are POWERFUL. You will need to use an overnight charger & let them charge for the whole time listed to get the complete & fullest charge for these batteries. The quick chargers are good for keeping the teary eyed toddler from throwing a fit, then after he goes to bed, put them in the overnight charger. These batteries have been in our son's Leapfrog Clickstart keyboard for over a month & they are STILL going strong, longer than the regular AA's, and he uses it everyday. We have the C size in the console & same there, over a month now - almost 2 - lasting longer than the regular batteries did (only a month) I am completely amazed at how long they hold a charge. I am getting more because we seem to have quite a few things that need AAs. The price may seem steep at first, but we will save quite a lot in just a year by using these rechargeables.
The savings will be worth the money! [Posted on 2008-04-08]
I bought this because I am always eating through batteries for my camera, they are more expensive up front (espically since youhave to buy a charger), but it is going to be worth it, I wont have to buy batteries for years!!
Great for Wii [Posted on 2008-04-21]
these batteries are great for the wii. Tehy will work for 3 to 5 days and then I just change them for a fresh pair. I use the slow charger I have 10 bateries for 3 controls and I'm never out of bateries.
I think these batteries are primarly for toys.
Don't Waste your Money - stay away! [Posted on 2008-08-05]
I bought 16 of these batteries at 2 different times. I recently purchased a La-Crosse BC-900 charger thinking I could recover them, but they still self discharge to less than 1V in as little as 2 days, and always less than 1 week.
I have much older Energizer 1700 mAh batteries and even older (about 10 years old) Sony batteries (1600 mAh and 1450 mAh) - all hold a charge longer and work better than these 2500 mAh Energizers.
These are no good - stay away!
deserves a minus ten . . . [Posted on 2008-08-28]
Avoid these batteries!!!!!! They are so bad they deserve a rating of minus ten. My experience is similar to many others. Good initial performance, and then after a while these bloody Energizers can't hold a charge. Unfortunately before I discovered how crappy they really are, I bought a bunch of them, for use in my digital cameras and camera flash units. When these babies fail, performance falls like a lead balloon. They might have enough power to operate a remote control unit, but you can forget about powering anything with a major power draw.
Unfortunately Energizer is extremely successful at getting stores to stock this junk. I get real annoyed whenever I see them on display, because it reminds me of all the money I wasted. They seem to be available everywhere, a constant reminder of a disaster. How does a product that is so bad, get such great distribution and remain available for sale? Energizer probably gets off easy, because it takes a while for their batteries to go bad. By then, it's less likely that people will complain or return them. Blasting them wherever I can is like therapy for me. Believe what you hear people, these batteries are terrible!
As an alternative, I have been very satisfied with the performance of Ray-O-Vac Hybrid cells, both the AA and AAA sizes. Take a look at them.
