 Awesome Batteries March 6, 2010
Rob Engers (Chicago, IL USA)
These things are quality. I use them mostly for my Xbox 360 / Wii controllers, and I've found that they last longer than fresh alkaline duracells. Definitely a smart buy, since they only cost a few times more than alkalines.
I recommend getting the "smart" charger for these. There's two of them, the smart and the dumb. The dumb just gives anything you put in it 6 hours of juice, regardless of if its low or not. The smart one lets you put in any combo of batteries (AA or AAA) and it gives each one only what it needs. This extends the life of the batteries significantly.
 They were supposed to come pre-charged? March 1, 2010

This new battery technology is supposed to have a longer memory than previous rechargeables, right? Says on the package that they come pre-charged. Stuck 'em in my camera and the indicator showed 1/3 of a charge. We'll see if things get better!
not bad, but could be better February 23, 2010
K. Lin (Walnut, CA, USA)
* received pre-charged, but only at 50% capacity. Note, it is best to keep batteries charged at only 50% if they are going to be used immediately. So, it is understandable the factory only charged these to 50% for initial use (they don't know how long it will sit on the shelves)
After a few rounds of charge and discharge through regular use (in wireless keyboard and mouse), the full charge now shows at 75% or above.
You do need to use it and let it run below 10% power before recharging to get full benefit for recharging. It takes at least 3-5 rounds.
After that, it runs well, but seems to drain much faster than the regular alkaline non-rechargeable ones.
*compared both duracell and energizer, the duracell works better and recharges to a higher percentage (90% on dura** and only about 75% on energ**)
I like this 4 packs at only $9.99. They are good for anything, Wii remotes, flashlights, cd players (most people use iPod now...)
I keep a few charged in a plastic bag and rotate them regularly just in case of emergency.
recommended buy.
 only charges to 50 percent, February 15, 2010
CheckMyMoves
I dunno about anyone else but these batteries only charge to 50% for me accordin to my Wii Remote. I bought the 4x AA + 4xAAA & slapped on four more AA's and all the Double A's charge to 50%. No fair.
great batteries February 10, 2010

I started buying rechargeable batteries when I started using so many in the kids toys. These seem to hold a charge longer than most. Seems like they will be a real money saver in the end.
