Title: GOOD PRICE!
Review: Very well boxed/sealed. I have never had a problem with purchasing different brands of recyclable batteries from Amazon. I will change rating if I find these do not perform as well. All of the other ones I purchased over the last 5 years are still going strong via my battery charger.I put 2 of these in my TV remote directly out of box. *photo 2) Only 2 green bars showed capacity. I decided to put them in my charger. Light went from red to green in appx. 1.5 hours. I put them back into remote and green bars on TV showed 4 bars! (photo 3)Just a reminder. Even though they are charged before packing at factory, they will lose some power before they are finally sold and shipped to you. To get FULL power the 1st time, I would suggest you charge them again.

Title: Extremely consistent performance, holds more charge than advertised, great value
Review: I recently purchased EBL's 2500 AA NiMH batteries (ASIN B08XP7ZC8K) because they were less expensive, advertised 2500mAh capacity, and were 30% less expensive (as of May 2024), and I liked the colors. Since it seemed a little too good to be true, I decided to thoroughly test and compare the brands. The data is worth sharing.Testing Methodology: All tests were performed with an ISDT N16 charger. It is an intelligent charger. Two rounds of testing were performed at three charge rates: 0.5A, 1.0A, 1.5A. The NiMH charging strategy starts with a lower voltage and increases the voltage over time and considers temperature as it charges, up to the set charge rate. "Activation Charge" for NiMH cells was enabled, which drains the battery first, then performs a full charge. This should result in a consistent charge pattern (no partial charges) and level the playing field as discharging was uniform. The charted results omit the single worst charge, while the table includes all results. The batteries have not been used in anything other than the ISDT N16 charger.Results:* All cells charged to roughly 2574mAh on average, at all charge rates* The product exceeds advertised 2400mAh capacity by 174mAh, on average, at all charge rates.* At a 1.5A charge rate, the charge variation between the least & most charged cells was the greatest* At a 0.5A charge rate, the variation was the lowestComparing this to EBL's offering, Amazon's 2400mAh battery had a tendency to exceed the stated design capacity, which I've observed as between 2562-2580mAh on average and as high as 2848mAh. This, from the same charger, at the same charge rates, and with the "activation" option enabled.Cost comparison (as of May 2024) highlights some interesting data:* AZ 2400 12-pk @ $21.79 - $1.82/cell - @2574mAh realized capacity = 0.07 cents per 100mAh* EBL 2500 12-pk - $15.28 - $1.27/cell - @2100mAh realized capacity = 0.06 cents per 100mAh* Capacity as deciding factor: Amazon "wins" as they hold 18% more charge, but initial purchase cost is 30% more than EBL. When considering cost per cell's capacity, the difference is negligible and both brands stand on equal footing. Amazon's brand charges more consistently, holds more charge/out-performs their stated specification, and has more consistent voltage at rest.* Cost as deciding factor: EBL "wins" on price as the initial purchase cost is less expensive than Amazon by 30%. However, EBL's cells hold 18% less charge than Amazon and fall short of charging to EBL's stated capacity by 16%. If EBL's cells charged more consistently and could be fully charged to capacity, they would easily represent the better overall value.* Charging: EBLs perform better at a higher 1.5A charge rate and also charge more quickly. Amazon's batteries perform better at a 0.5A charge rate which takes longer. However, Amazon's variability at 1.5A charging (360mAh variance) is only *slightly* worse than the best EBL 1.5A result (324mAh variance). EBL's variance at 0.5A charge rate is 644mAh, which is 2.25x worse than Amazon at 287mAh variance. Amazon's product performance is consistently consistent.

Title: These are a MUST for every household!
Review: These rechargeable batteries are awesome and are actually BETTER than advertised. They are long lasting, recharge quickly and retain the charge for a lengthy amount of time,Amazon Basics 16-Count Rechargeable AA NiMH Batteries, 2000 mAh, Recharge up to 1000x Times and come to you Pre-Charged. At first I ordered the 16-count package, but kept finding so many uses that I quickly ordered another package and shared with my grandchildren! These batteries are one of the most satisfying purchases I have ever made on Amazon.

Title: Size difference
Review: Already owned some but needed more because regular batteries I had in my back massager died and didn't have any backups left. Not a loss since I really needed more anyway but, I was kind of pissed to find out that these batteries are a pinch bigger than regular ones and they wouldn't fit in the battery compartment. So now I have to get regular ones too. Decent batteries but don't get on an ASAP just in case they don't fit everything you need them for.Other than this one item, they've fit and work just fine. Have had to recharge them and don't take much time to do that. They seem to keep a charge a shorter time then regular batteries but that could be my usage also. I have had name brand rechargeable in the past that seemed to keep the charge longer though.

Title: Better than the basic black capped variant
Review: But the plastic white ring on the positive end tends to come off when charging. Doesn't seem to effect the performance but it makes it feel lower quality physically than the basics.Just as wide as the normal rechargeables, so old decorations with narrow housing may end up getting these stuck. Keep that in mind before committing to pushing them all in if it feels that way.

Title: LOVE THESE
Review: I have been using NiMH batteries for seven years now. No more leaks. No more frustrations. They hold the charge well and have plenty of reserve. I started buying the Amazon brand 3 years ago and they are as good as the prior brands I've been using forever. The only problem is that they seem to disappear. I harangue my family about it but they all swear they never throw them away. But they've never asked me to take care of discharged batteries, either, I might add... Hmmmm.... But the BEST thing of all is that I can leave these in electronics unused for months or years on end without leaks ruining the device they are in. Just the best.

Title: These batteries leaked after less than 20 charges.
Review: I use nothing but Amazon Basics rechargeable batteries, and, I have had no troubles until I ordered these batteries. I started noticing that the batteries, after a few charges (about 20), would not fit in the same devices (like they were started to bulge). Then I noticed that the tops of at least three of them were leaking, so they needed to be disposed of at a local big box store. I knew when I contacted Amazon that I was well beyond my one year purchase date (back in July 2023), but I expected these batteries would at least last a couple of years, as I suspect anyone looking at the description would as well. In fairness to Amazon, they looked into it and although they had no other reports of this in their system, they issued a full refund, which I will use to replace what I have, likely with a different type of Amazon Basics rechargeable.
