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.
So far, these rechargeable batteries are proving very useful & saving on buying the non-rechargeable type. I use them in the numerous battery operated torches and lights I have in my house in the event of the power cuts that are a possibility this winter.
Used to power radiator TVR and have only been recharged a few times however four of them will no longer charge which I presume is because they were run completely flat. Bought Energizer AA batteries and they don’t have the same problem.
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.
I have been using rechargeable batteries for more than 15 years. In the early days, there were C and D batteries as well, but now there just seem to be AA and AAA. P3 batteries are around, but not much used. Everything about rechargeable batteries I like, except one thing – they do not charge to the full 1.5 volts, which is what disposable batteries start at. 1.25 volts is about the highest charge you can expect. Having said that, I have only found 1 item, a wall clock, which claims not to like them, but I have been using the clock for 10 years or so now, and it is reliable. It needs a newly charged battery slightly more often.
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.
