Two Thumbs Down in AA

I don't know why these batteries have such good reviews and I bought them because of the "great" reviews. I agree, it was impressive, they came preinstalled. I put them on the same night that I received them and they looked fantastic - very bright, lit my walkway very well and even stayed very bright all night. I was even surprised to see that they were on the next morning were still very well lit before the sun came up. BUT. This was the ONLY time my flashlights worked well with these batteries. After that, the batteries seem to charge poorly every night from solar power, and some don't charge at all. The lights that work are very dim and others don't work at all. These photos were taken about 2 hours after sunset. Big disappointment.

Pros
  • 30% Pre-Charged for Ready-to-Use: For safety reasons, these batteries are only pre-charged to 30% capacity, so charge before use to extend battery life. Also, charging the battery every 3 months can extend the battery life.
Cons
  • Slightly torn
