Great price and they work well without needing to be charged first. I’ve bought these basic batteries before. Perhaps they don’t last quite as long as branded ones but there’s very little difference.
Used for PC mouse and wireless keyboard and they last ages. Quick to recharge so your never without batteries and saving a fortune not buying single use and helping the environme
I was busy choosing new landline phones when I realised I simply needed new rechargeable batteries in the old ones. These do the job perfectly and I’ve even got 2 spare. The best thing is they’re even better than the ones that were in them, so should last even longer!
The batteries arrived on due date. / Not had chance to use them yet. To be used in battery powered headphones. Me fed up with buying normal batteries and throwing away when dead.
Like everyone else, I have several items that use batteries. I used to use ordinary non-rechargeable ones, but since buying a charger from Amazon, I now have AA as well as AAA batteries that can be re-charged.
Needed replacements for our 6 year old cordless telephone handsets, and the Amazon Basics i have bought in the past have always performed well for me, and these have been no different. If there are Amazon Basics options for what i want, don’t tend to look for other options, as they are generally the cheapest in the mid range of things, and perform as well as the more expensive brands, and in some instances like batteries outperform some of the larger brands.
I received the product ahead of schedule however it was supposed be be fully charged.
I have had to charge the batteries for a short period of time to fully charge them.
I cannot comment on the battery life yet. I will do so in due course.
Regards
Of all the different makes of rechargeable batteries I have bought these basics one last a lot lot longer and have never failed like the others and more expensive ones.
Only had a week so can’t score for longevity, ordered came in few days, I think batteries are fatter than non-rechargeable as it’s a tight fit in dog nail grinder, no problems fitting in remote control and other electronics devices.
I’ve brought these for all of our devices, I’ve not had time to charge them all, so I cannot give a full review.
The only issue I have, is my own charger, is does not have separate led, to show which battery is charged.
Previously when we bought batteries from a shop that is 1p less than 1.01, they lasted about 10 minutes before giving up.
These batteries, however, have lasted longer than that and it is still working perfecty without needing charging up yet!!!
Good rechargeable batteries which i’ve used a lot of, capacity is stated as 850mah but it’s normally about 900. Since i normally get these for under a pound each and even after many dozens of charges you still have over 700mah left i don’t bother with disposables any more.
Pair these with the Youshiko YC4000 charger ( found here on amazon for under 30 ).
You’ll save money and reduce waste and may reconsider buying single use household batteries at all.
Good value for money but not quite as high performing as a certain Swedish stores offering.
Japanese made ones are still the best but these Amazon basics perform well for the money.
I bought to change all batteries in my house phone. So far have lasted quite a while. The only thing I would say is that before use I put them in a battery charger. When the charging ended as indicated by the charger I tested them with my battery tester and they were not showing FULLY charged. So I repeated the charging process. It took 3 attempts before the batteries were indicating FULL on my tester. Not sure why but surely that is not good.
I have These batteries in various sizes. Amazon basics live much longer than other batteries and the price point is excellent. I doubt you will get any better. Re- chargeable is the way to go.
Bought these for a automatic hand wash and it was being used everyday. These batteries lasted 3 months which I weren’t expected these to last that long.
Very pleased with them.
I prefer to buy another brand but these are mainly for Christmas lights in my porch, it saves having cable all over.
They last 2-3 days before recharging when used for approx. 6 hours a day, which is fine for me.
I have12 of these and they last a good while (between charges) in the 4 torches we use.
longevity had these about a year, each torch has had it’s 3 batteries charged twice, so pass.
that said looking to get some more aaa’s and some aa’s batteries.
I love these rechargeable batteries. I am always looking for batteries for something’ and the fact that these can be recharged several times over. I use them instead of throw away batteries. I believe it must be helping the environment a bit.
These do work, but I’ve had quite a few batteries that simply won’t recharge and have to be binned. That’s quite a few in months not years like my previous rechargeable batteries. These are OK when on offer, otherwise not value for money as you need to buy more than needed to make up for the duds.
Christmas is the time of the year when most of my rechargeable batteries are in use for decoration lights. At that time, I invariably feel like they are at the peak of their usefulness. It must be at least 10 years since I bought a disposable battery, and that was when I was on holiday and my electric toothbrush ran out of charge because I forgot to charge them before I left. Pity you can’t get rechargeable button batteries.
Battery power is still a growing industry, resulting in world shortages of battery raw materials, mainly Lithium. That’s where rechargeable batteries help the world’s resources. I recon rechargeable batteries will last at least 5 years, sometimes going up closer to 10. You can tell when they need to be replaced; the charger fails to recharge them successfully (red light fails to turn green), or the battery loses power too quickly. Batteries recharge in pairs, and when the recharging light fails to turn green, it could be either battery responsible. Don’t throw them both out. Charge one of the pair with another battery, known to be good. If that works, it’s likely to be the other one.
In conclusion, rechargeable batteries are kinder to the planet, you need never run out of them, and they save you a fortune.
