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

These rechargeable AAA batteries have been a dependable choice for everyday use. They hold a charge well and work consistently across different devices like remotes, small electronics, and game controllers. The 800 mAh capacity seems well balanced for typical household needs without needing constant recharging. Charging them is straightforward, and they seem to recharge evenly without any issues. After multiple cycles, the performance has stayed steady, which is exactly what I was hoping for. It’s also nice not having to keep buying disposable batteries, which saves money over time. The 12-pack is a great value, especially for anyone who goes through batteries regularly. Having extras on hand means fewer interruptions, and the quality feels reliable enough to trust for long term use.

Recently purchased the Amazon Basics 12-Pack Rechargeable AAA NiMH Performance Batteries, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with their performance and value for money. These batteries have become an essential part of my household, and here's why: - Love the long-Lasting Power: Has a 800 mAh capacity of these batteries provides ample power for a variety of devices. Whether I'm using them in remote controls, wireless mice, or small electronic gadgets, I am getting consistent reliable and long-lasting performance. - Quick Recharge: These batteries recharge quickly, which is a huge convenience. I appreciate not having to wait around for hours to get my devices up and running again. It's a great time-saver! - Durable and Reliable: For the most part, as brand name Amazon Basics I have kinda been skeptical, but the quality, with these batteries are great Built to last and can withstand multiple charge cycles without losing their capacity or efficiency. This saves me money in the long run and reduces waste. - Environmentally Friendly: I love that I can reduce my environmental footprint by using rechargeable batteries. It's a small but meaningful step towards sustainability, and these batteries allow me to do that without sacrificing performance. Hey, at least I am trying to do my little bit for the planet. - Economical Choice: 12-pack is a fantastic deal for the price. Considering the quality and longevity of these batteries, they are an economical choice compared to disposable ones. I've saved a significant amount of money since making the switch. Got high hopes for Amazon Basics 12-Pack Rechargeable AAA NiMH Performance Batteries . I highly recommend these batteries to anyone in need of AAA rechargeables – they won't disappoint! Off now, to look at their AA offerings.

After researching the price and performance of different NiMH batteries, I decided to go with the Black Amazon brand batteries since they seemed to compete with Eneloops (personal top pick performance-wise). Although they don't have as high of a capacity or have as many recharge cycles, they still hold up well enough and are half the cost. Once I received mine, they didn't take very long to charge and they fit in the remotes that I bought them for, so the sizing seemed pretty standard for AAA batteries. For AAA batteries, I'd definitely recommend these over other brands since they're usually for smaller items that don't get frequent use (e.g. TV remotes). However, If you need batteries for things where you're actively using an item for long periods of time (e.g. computer mouse, xbox control) I'd recommend investing in some Eneloops since they have a higher capacity and more recharge cycles. If any issues arise, I'll be sure to update my review.

TL;DR: Amazon Basics rechargeable batteries offer good value, especially if you catch them on sale. They're not the highest capacity or longest-lasting in terms of charging cycles, but they are far better than non-rechargeable batteries for both the environment and your wallet. Just keep in mind a reliable charger is essential to getting the most out of them. PROS: 🥳 Great value, especially on sale. 🥳 Less waste compared to disposables. 🥳 Ideal for low-drain gadgets. CONS: 😩 Capacity is on the lower side 😩 Don't hold charge as well as premium options. 😩 Performance can decline sooner than expected. DETAILED REVIEW: VALUE: For the price, these are hard to beat. If you catch them on one of Amazon's several sales, they're a great deal for rechargeable batteries. Not top-tier performance, but still a solid choice. PERFORMANCE: They're decent for everyday gadgets, but not as durable or long-lasting as more expensive brands. They're not the best at holding charge over time, and you might find they start to lose their capacity a bit quicker than more expensive options. In fact, I've had some go a little funky before reaching their supposed 1,000 recharge cycles. But for everyday use, they get the job done. You'll get decent use out of them, but don't expect them to last too long without some decline. PRE-CHARGED ISSUE: They come "pre-charged," but the charge is often low. Always recharge them before first use to get the best performance. LONG-TERM VALUE: Definitely better than disposables, even with the cons; especially in terms of cost and environmental impact. I've had an issue recently with a non-rechargeable Duracell battery that was way before it's expiration date leaking in and damaging an expensive microphone after just 1 or 2 months in there... But I’ve never had a rechargeable one do that. For me, that’s a major win. ** EDIT: Just a low-drain device warning and fix. One thing I recently discovered is if you use these in very low-drain devices (like, in my case, a kitchen timer), it's possible to over-discharge them without realizing it. In my case, the LCD numbers became faint and the alarm got very quiet long before the timer completely stopped working, so the batteries still had juice when I took them out. However, the battery voltage had already dropped below the minimum voltage that certain smart chargers require to detect the battery, which was the case with the only charger I currently have. If that happens, the charger acts like the battery is dead and doesn't even acknowledge you put in a battery. If this happens, don’t panic, you can revive it by briefly connecting the depleted battery in parallel with a charged rechargeable AAA battery using two wires: positive-to-positive and negative-to-negative. Hold the connection for about 15–30 seconds. This can raise the voltage enough for the charger to recognize and charge the battery normally again. DISCLAIMER: I’m not recommending this as an officially approved method, just sharing what worked for me. Reviving an over-discharged rechargeable battery this way should be done carefully and at your own risk. Make absolutely sure you connect positive-to-positive and negative-to-negative, avoid short circuits, and stop immediately if the battery becomes hot, swollen, or damaged. If you're not comfortable doing this, don't! **

I already had an Amazon charger that charges 8 batteries at a time. Note: these are rechargeable batteries only and no charger, in case you need one. We consume an inordinate amount of AA and AAA batteries, thus the switch. We are approximately 80% rechargeable batteries and are pleased with the performance and durability. They hold up very well and we use them in everything except water related items (the 20%). If you use rechargeable batteries, I highly recommend them.

MY EXPERIENCE I use AAAs mostly for my MP3 players. 4GB USB 2.0 Mp3 Music Player with Fm Radio Function Voice Recorder Red . My wife began complaining that our rechargeables (several brands, most more than 5 years old) didn't seem to be delivering as much playing times they used to. So I purchased 4 Amazon NiMH rechargeables---which are said to be repackaged Sony Eneloops, which are generally acknowledged to be the best consumer NiMHs available. CAPACITY Honestly, I have not noticed any difference in how long the new Amazon NiMH batteries lasted compared to my old NiMH batteries. That means that there COULD have been a difference of up to ~20%. But then, I have a better charger than most users---see below. HOLDING CHARGE In actual practice (not charts of test results) most rechargeable loose about 1/2% of their charge per day, or more, so fully charged batteries are nearly empty after 3 months, or less, even if unused. The great (hypothetical) advantage of these Amazon batteries (Eneloops, and other advanced NiMH batteries] is that (theoretically) they hold their charge for years (when stored in optimal conditions), making them practical (but generally not cost-effective) in light-demand applications such as wall clocks or TV remote controls. In actual practice, even these batteries loose their charge much quicker when actually installed in equipment, depending on the type of equipment. My MP3 player is so "leaky" that fresh batteries are dead in about 3 weeks, even if the player isn't used---in which case Amazon/Eneloops wouldn't make any difference. CONCLUSION While I doubt that these batteries live up to their hype in actual use, I have no doubt that they are the best choice among AA/AAA consumer rechargeable batteries. PACKAGING The packaging is a nice 3" X 5" X 1" cardboard box, the batteries in the box are shrink-wrapped together. Honestly, I would have preferred a small cardboard box the size of 4 batteries which could be used for storage, particularly when traveling, since I only use one battery at a time. RECHARGING I strongly recommend Sony BCG34HRE4KN Cycle Energy Quick with Refresh Charger and 4 Pre-Charged 2000 mAh AA Batteries (Discontinued by Manufacturer) . Yes, the Sony costs 2-3X as much as an average dumb charger, and has been discontinued, but is still available, and apparently Sony has no replacement model. Actually, at $33, the Sony is probably the cheapest truly smart charger you can buy. Minus $8-$10 for the included batteries, the Sony charger is, in effect, $20-$25. The next cheapest smart charger I know of is $45 without any batteries. Caution, cheaper Sony chargers which look almost identical are NOT smart. Most chargers are dumb and just charge a preset amount of time--usually 8 hours. They either undercharge or overcharge your batteries. (That is, they overcharge partially charged or low capacity batteries, and undercharge empty high capacity batteries). Overcharging damages batteries. Undercharging causes permanent loss of capacity. You also have to charge 2 or 4 batteries at a time---you can't charge 1 or 3, nor mix AAAs and AAs (except in pairs). The Amazon Basics charger is a nice little charger international travel, but IS NOT SMART. The SONY CYCLE CHARGER monitors your batteries as it charges. If a battery only needs to be topped off--the charger ONLY tops it off, often in just a few minutes. If your batteries need a full charge, they get it, regardless of their capacity, AND as fast as your batteries can accept the charge--usually just a few hours. You can charge ANY number of batteries at a time, including just one, and ANY combination of AAAs and AAs. If a battery dies on you while the SONY is in already in use--no problem, just insert the battery in a free slot and it will be properly charged. The SONY has a "refresh" function which (optionally) fully drains the batteries before recharging---which typically restores lost capacity. Using the "refresh and charge" cycle several times, I've resurrected a half-dozen nearly"dead" NiMHs (which I had just thrown in a drawer). I believe that this charger is why my 5-year old batteries have the same (or nearly the same) capacity as the new Amazon NiMH batteries. HOW CAN YOU TELL IF A CHARGER IS SMART OR NOT If it cost less than $20 (not including any batteries), it is NOT a smart charger. > Click on “Stoney” just below the product title to see my other reviews, or leave a comment to ask a question.

Cordless phone handsets take two batteries each. They were not holding charge well after probably 8 years. Replaced batteries with these and they work great. Good value for the money.

I really want to like these things. I love the idea of reusing instead of tossing batteries. I have given them a couple of years, but I feel like all I do is change batteries. I even started to use them only in low-drain devices like remotes and smart door locks, but the batteries die so quickly. They also lose power in the cabinet, so every time I need a couple, I have to recharge them to make sure they are full. And we aren't talking about a quick top-off. It sometimes takes over an hour, and it takes multiple hours to get the dead ones charged.

I purchased this item on September 30th, 2016 for the price of CDN$ 8.79 before tax. I own a Panasonic Eneloop K-KJ17MCA4BA charger and I have been using Eneloop branded batteries with it. I previously purchased the 8-pack of AmazonBasics AAA rechargeable batteries, and I found that they perform just as well as the Eneloops. I did some research and also found that AmazonBasics rechargeable batteries are just re-branded Eneloop batteries. There is no reason to buy Eneloop branded batteries if you have the option of buying these ones. You also get a discount on AmazonBasics products if you are a Prime member, so these already cheap rechargeable batteries become even cheaper. They hold their charge very well and also charge quickly, but I believe the charging speed depends on the charger you are using. I use my AmazonBasics batteries in my remotes, controllers, graphing calculator and wireless mice. What's good about this product? ☑ PRICE: These rechargeable batteries are extremely affordable and are even cheaper with Amazon Prime. ☑ PRE-CHARGED: These batteries come ready to use right out of the package. ☑ QUALITY: As mentioned earlier, they are practically rebranded Eneloops, which are known for their quality and reliability. ☑ PACKAGING: Comes in Amazon frustration-free packaging. What's bad about this product? ⚠ NOTHING: I have personally used the AmazonBasics rechargeable AAA batteries for months and have had no issues. However, some other reviewers have noted that their experience has shown that the battery does not hold it's charge and/or requires frequent charging.

These batteries work really well for what I need them for. They come pre-charged, so they're ready to go right out of the package. So far, they've held up over time, which is great. I have no regrets with these batteries.

Great little pack to have for spares good for house phones

沢山電池使う人此を使うと経済的‼️
