Review on EBL 8 Pack Lithium AA Batteries - Powering High-Tech Devices With 3000MAh Capacity At A Constant 1.5V by Matthew Ciula

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect so far best in my review

5 Month Update:One of my Blink XT2 cameras went offline and stayed offline for 2 days. Assuming that the batteries died a premature death, I took out my ladder, got the camera down, and opened it up. One battery read 1.65 volts and the other read 1.64 volts so neither were dead but both are down .1 volt from their starting voltage. I placed them back in the camera and it came back online. This does not seem to be a battery issue at all, apparently the camera just needed to be power cycled. Hopefully this will not be a recurring issue.Original I had an immediate need for only 2 batteries in a Blink security camera, but since I have other cameras that were all set up at the same time, it made sense to buy an 8 pack. I have used EBL rechargeable AA and AAA batteries for years, and these are nicely discounted compared to Energizer, so I thought I would give them a try.I really like that these come in a reusable hard case to store the remaining batteries until I am ready to use them. In the past I have bought battery cases like this separately and they aren't exactly expensive but it is very nice to have one included.Because of some mixed reviews, the first thing I did when I got these batteries is test them with my multimeter. Seven out of the eight measured 1.75 volts, with the eighth one measuring 1.74 volts. That's as close to perfect as anyone can expect.Only time will tell how long these last, so I can't comment on that yet. If they don't last as expected, I will be sure to come back and update my review.

Pros
  • Good price.
Cons
  • The batteries may not work well with rechargeable devices
