Have used these batteries at work for the last couple of years and thought i would get some for myself. Very practical as you can charge them up and leave them for months before using them and they still hold their charge.
Bought these after web investigation regarding re-chargeable batteries. Given excellent reviews so bought them. On opening the package and then installing them in my Canon compact camera. They come charged and have worked a treat. They have done for the last month, not using all the time but still good.
I own several brands of batteries and this is my 3rd set of this manufacturer. They seem to hold their charge longer and have a longer life than others. I use them with a Lacrosse charger that charges each cell individually so I assume that some of my better performance is because of the technology of the charger.
SO far, I have not had to discard any cells because of failure. Generally other manufacturers last from 9 to 18 months and the performance degrades after 1 year,
These seem to hold the charge and have more effective life. I use mainly on LOW DRAW appllications.
