sorted byAgreed, may as well throw the money in the bin
If you wanna go further down, you can get 800mAh AA's from Poundland, 2 for £1, same with 350mAh AAAs.
Poor for most applications but some people might have a use where they're suitable.
Seeing that it is commensurate with what you are paying, it does not really make it a deal, hence I voted cold. It is false economy akin to buying cheap zinc batteries over buying alkaline.
1/ That's a long time charging
2/ No intelligent control, so won't fully charge the batteries (or if it does then it'll overcharge ones which aren't drained).
I'd pay a bit more for something better, unless you're desperately skint.
Got mine from various pound shops but I would imagine a normal cheap mains powered charger would work the same, the type with only a singe led status light.
no details about low self discharge and low capacity
Yeah, but they're half the price of a 2500mAh battery. Seems commensurate with what you're paying, really.
That is the only reason I would buy one of these. Do you know of anywhere where you can get the charger on its own cheaper? I have some batteries my smart charger flags as faulty and read that these chargers usually do the trick just nicely.
Really?
If they are lighter it is because they contain less active material, so they would behave exactly the same as the higher capacity cells in terms of charge cycles.
