A good price for rechargeable batteries
Not going to get as good as IKEA home brand back near lockdown price prices.
This brand is a little less known, + AA is only 600 mAh quite low for AA NiMH batteries. So dont have high hopes for it, nevertheless a good price, and a good amazon product rating (but keep in mind ratings can be fake)

    Am I missing something? 600mAh… 1980s capacities here. That's even low for a AAA.

  • Maybe it is good for landline phones use? 🤔

  • These must be designed for solar string lights
    That's what I just replaced in mine

  • Buy BTY from ebay much better. I bought 12 for $9 almost 2 years ago. Still goong storng after 2 years. Used mainly for remotes watches mouse keyboards etc.

  • I view all cheapie batteries as potential electronics destroyers- leave AAs or AAAs in low usage devices like remotes for 2+ years and there's too good a chance that a leak will just wreck the remote.

    I'm not sure if this also applies to NiMH batteries, but it sure does to alkalines.

    • Its called chemistry, -flow of electrons, Only way to stop that rusting is to take of the battery from the remote dude.

        You've seriously never noticed the long term leak rate of Duracells/Energisers vs Chinese generics?

        It's not rust, it's leaking electrolyte.

        • its called transfer of electrons from one metal to another (anode to a cathode usually). On surface its appears as rust, should have said corrosion as the correct term (with some alkaline battery leakage, others just appear as white/blue/yellow powder deposits). NiMH tends to leak less way less than alkaline.

          Anyway the point is you cannot just stop chemistry at basics dude, without cutting out the movement of electron there. (so just take out batteries when Remote or device not in use), if you just tend to leave battery in the thing and not be using it regularly that's a user problem. Normally one should have already noticed the signs that device is not running on old cells, replace it near that time only. (when it hasnt leaked yet)

        • Is there a way to prevent leaks? Or is it best to avoid cheap batteries and only stick to eneloops?

          • +1

            @OzBoganYeah: Just anecdotally, I've don't recall every having Duracells leak. Had only couple of instances of leaking Energisers in the past decade. No leaking Eneloops in ~10 years. Practically all my leaking batteries have been generic brands that come included with devices- I suspect the way to avoid problems is just to replace them on a more regular basis, but that means for some devices like remotes, you'd be tossing them before they've even reached halfway through their charge.

            I almost never buy other brands of primary / non-rechargable (Panasonic - who are the manufacturer of Eneloop recharables, Varta, etc) so cannot comment on how reliable they'd be long term, but I'd guess they'd be better than the freebies.

          • @OzBoganYeah: The only guaranteed way to prevent it damaging equipment is to take out the batteries when not using the device.

            AND ESPECIALLY When you get a sign that device isn't getting power (aka battery gone flat) take out the batteries asap and put them separately in a bag to dumb at your nearest supermarket/OW battery bin.

          • @OzBoganYeah: Your first inclination is the best idea imo. Without proper testing and reviews/reputation you can't even be sure that you'll be getting the capacity advertised. These batteries may be okay, may be junk. Also be aware that there are many fake brand name batteries (and plenty of other products) out of China.

    Off topic:
    I found my ancient answering machine "remote caller" the other day - you'd phone in to your answering machine from a remote location and press a button on the remote for it to send a signal to play back to the caller any messages.
    Stupid me had left the two, black AA Panasonic batteries in it and they still worked. The remote would have to be (at a minimum) over 20 years old! How the batteries were still alive and not leaked is incredible.

      two, black AA Panasonic batteries in it

      Were the batteries alkaline or rechargeable? NiCad and NiMH batteries aren't harmed by going flat, and shouldn't leak when they do go flat.

      Until eneloop batteries came onto the market, all NiCad and NiMH batteries were flat when you bought them, and had been flat while sitting on the store shelves or in a warehouse for months to years.

        Russ asked "Were the batteries alkaline or rechargeable?"
        They were mere bog-standard AA batteries from that era.

        • In that case, I'm as surprised as you were! I'm sure everyone has found the remains of a battery that has fallen behind a piece of furniture. At the minimum, I would have expected your batteries to be flat.

  • AA Batteries @ 600 mAh? That's even lower then a typical AAA capacity.
    Might be good for extremely low-power devices like TV remotes.

    For context, Eneloop Pro's are around 2500 mAh each. If we're considering capacity (Not voltage) alone then 1 Eneloop Pro is slightly more capacity then 4 of these JINTION batteries combined. Probably more reliable too.

    • Wow, I had missed the capacities.

      How is it that the AAAs and AAs are both rated to 600mAh. Seems very weird- surely that's a typo :/

      I just ran a break-in cycle on the new Ikea Ladda AAAs which I am testing out, and they are reporting at just over 800mAh.

        How is it that the AAAs and AAs are both rated to 600mAh.

        I have seen D-size NiMH batteries with only 2000mAh capacity. I didn't buy them, and on close inspection they appeared to be AA batteries wrapped in thick layers of cardboard. I couldn't see in detail as they were still in their packaging, in the store.

        The AA batteries in this deal may also be "bulked up" AAA batteries, perhaps with a conductive rod on the positive end, to make the battery the correct length for an AA battery.

        • +1

          Good point.

          I've seen D sized battery holders that can take 3 AAs, so at least you get triple the capacity, even if it's nowhere near the capacity that a true D cell would hold.
