mediocre at best
I decided to buy a whole bunch of rechargeable batteries and the charger (at Sam's Club) and get prepared for the big one (earthquake).
So I bought these home and man it really took a long time to charge them up.
The charger got very hot after the second round of 4 AA batteries.
The AA ones in this charger are 2450mAh and those in the separate packs are only 2300mAh or less. This will dictate the charging time.
The AAA ones are only 850mAh and took less than an hour to charge.
I felt happy and ready for any disaster after I got them all charged over night.
Then, when I used 3 of the AA batteries in my bluetooth wireless Apple keyboard, and I looked at the power monitor, it shows only 76% charged. And I used another 2 AA batteries in the Apple Wireless Might Mouse, it shows as only 74% charged. What!? I just had them fully charged!!!
What's worse, the lasting power of the energizer bunny is gone!!! After a weekend of not being home (so really they are just on stand by), the power monitor shows the keyboard at only 37% and the mouse at only 50%!!!! This comes really shocking to me. Because normally if I use non-rechargeable Duracell batteries, they last about 2-3 months on my keyboard and 1-2 months on my mouse. Now, these newly charged batteries didn't even last 1 week and they are down to less than half of the power.
I think I might just use them for a couple more months and see how they perform. If this continues, I will just return them to Sams Club.
But I am giving them only 2 stars right now because the energizer bunny is dead...
Good batteries / Not great charger
These batteries seem to have decent storage and perform well in my Canon Flash however the charger worked well for a month or so then it would take 3 minutes to get the batteries to align for charging. I wish it worked well because the size is very nice for travel. It does come with enough batteries that it is proabably still a decent value and worth buying. My suggestion is use the charger until it has problems and then find a good replacement.
No Real Complaints...
I haven't had any trouble with my rechargeable AA batteries or the charger. I've had mine for several years and the batteries are perfect for my digital camera (which sucks up juice like the rest). The batteries are perfect for other items like clocks and remote controls, which keep forever and cost you a fortune in batteries if you add them up over the years. I have never tried the AAA batteries, but I've been very happy with the AAs. I'm not giving this item 5 stars for the price of $2.50+ per battery. It's painful to drop $10+ for 4 batteries at first, even though you can use them for years.
