Amazon Basics 12-Pack Rechargeable AAA NiMH Performance Batteries, 800 mAh, 1.2V, Recharge up to 1000x Times, Pre-Charged

Over the last few of years I have purchased many of these triple A batteries from amazon, they have never let me down and although rechargbles are more expensive in the first instance to buy, than the ordinary type. I should imagine I have saved a great deal of £s in the long. Its surprising just how many batteries we need in our daily lives, and all you have to do is recharge them. These ones from amazon are competivly priced but as good as any of the more expensive brands to my mind. I will continue to purchase these if I need more. incidently After about three years of first buying these from Amazon I have not yet had to discard any, and they still appear to handle being re-harged. Certainly do for me. Good Stuff!

The Amazon Basics 24-Pack Rechargeable AA NiMH Batteries (2000mAh) are a fantastic investment for households that go through a lot of batteries. They come pre-charged and ready to use, which is really convenient straight out of the pack. I’ve used them in remotes, wireless mice, toys, and torches—each device performs reliably with strong, consistent power. Their 2000mAh capacity provides plenty of runtime, and they recharge quickly with my standard NiMH charger. After several charge cycles, they still hold power extremely well, making them both cost-effective and eco-friendly. The ability to recharge up to 1000 times saves a fortune over disposable batteries. Pros: • Strong, consistent power output • Rechargeable up to 1000 times – great long-term value • Pre-charged and ready to use • Perfect for high-drain devices like cameras and toys Cons: • Slightly lower voltage (1.2V) may not suit some older devices, but performance is still great overall Overall: 5/5 – Reliable, long-lasting rechargeable batteries that deliver great value and performance. A smart choice for cutting waste and saving money.

Reliable rechargeable batteries that hold charge well. The pack of 12 is excellent value and they work great in various devices. Last through multiple charge cycles. Good Amazon Basics quality.

Like many people I tend to use a lot of AA and AAA batteries. I've tried various manufacturers of rechargeable batteries, but read an independent review that praised these Amazon Basics batteries. I tried some and have been impressed. They seem to last well, and are usable straight out of the box, although with a slightly lower life before requiring a recharge. In fact my understanding is that often these batteries need several recharges before reaching full capacity (just what I've heard, can't confirm). According to my 'smart charger' they are full at 1.48v so almost the same as 1.5v alkaline batteries. I did have one that wouldn't automatically recharge. Normally people throw them away when that happens, however there are several internet videos that show you how to 'kick start' the battery so that it will recharge. I've used the technique on several occasions (for various makes of battery) and it works a treat. From having a seemingly 'dead' battery it recovers to become a fully usable battery again so don't chuck those apparently duff batteries away. Amazon don't like URLs in reviews so you'll have to look it up yourself.

Have used Amazon Basics Batteries for a long time, good price, good reliability.

Standard Average battery, reasonable price, a few leaked or won't hold charge

Very good. Charges quickly and lasts a long time too.

These are quite good batteries but they have quite a high self discharge rate, i.e. fully charge them and 12 hours later they have lost a significant portion (>1/3) of their charge. They are by no means awful, but I have tended to find that over Christmas I charge them 1 day. Unplug to charge other batteries and by the time I come to use them the next day they need a quick top up charge because they have dropped to <66% charge. Also quality is not consistent across batteries, some of the batteries have higher self discharge than others. For example fully charge 3 of them. Unplug charger and 30 minutes later on plugging the charge back in 2 need a little top up but have >66% charge (which would be expected) but 1 had already dropped to <66% charge. These are not batteries to charge and store (which is probably not a good idea anyway) Finally they are advertised as precharged but mine arrived with <33% charge. All things considered if you can afford the delivery charge and time for delivery I'd go with Ikea batteries. I have some and they are excellent loosing little charge over a whole week of sitting unused. I would have but I needed the fast delivery time that Amazon provided.
