🔋 RadioShack 1.2V/2500mAh AA Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries (4-Pack) Review

Works great as I have an old transistor radio installed on my garden/lawn tractor and use and listen to it every day while I work. I usually change the batteries every 2 days to keep them fresh and charged.

I charged them up and put them in my camera bag before traveling to Japan for backup batteries. When I got to the bag 3 weeks later, all of its internal chemicals (dry white powder) had leaked out and were unusable. I couldn't bring them home from Japan for safety reasons and I'm VERY disappointed. Beware!

These batteries arrived quickly and the packaging was ok. I immediately plugged them into the two high speed chargers I have. Even using high-speed chargers, it took about 5 hours to charge. I think this is due to their increased performance. They got pretty hot on the side. I use them in my flashlights. They (flashlights) can quickly drain a set of alkaline batteries after a few hundred flashes. After prolonged use (I didn't count the flashes) they were still very good on short flash cycles…
