Review on ACDelco Precharged Rechargeable Batteries AA and AAA, Insta-Use, 8 Each, Green - Pack of 8 AA & AAA Batteries by Tia Moore

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Keeps my flameless candles burning

I ordered these for use in my flameless candles that I have on timers. I use quite a few of these types of candles and therefore use up a lot of batteries. Side note: Aside from the relaxing atmosphere, candles are great when the power goes out, which happens quite often here on my small Appalachian farm. They're already lit so I can navigate when I call the utility company. Installing brighter lighting, if necessary a generator, etc. Let's get back to these batteries. On a whim, I decided to pop them straight out of the box into the charger without using them first. It took a full 24 hours to charge, so I'm not sure if they're as good out of the box as advertised. One star deducted for that. Otherwise they work great so far. As already mentioned, they feed numerous flameless candles. I haven't had any problems yet. I have these brands AAA, AA and their charger. I also have a very similar looking charger from Revain Basics (I've had it for 5 years or more). Revain Basics charger is superior to this brand charger because Revain Basics can charge 4 AAA or 4 AA while this brand can only charge 2 AAA or 4 AA. Also, the chargers take the same amount of time to charge the batteries. Overall I am very happy with these batteries. I needed replacement batteries (I bought the Revain Basics brand) and so far they work just as well as the AB brand. Finally, I put aside the subscription and saving for disposable AB batteries. It's nice to be green again.
