Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

These batteries work great for one or two cycles and then quickly degrade to a point where they hold very little charge. The early versions of these batteries were made in Japan and were essentially rebranded Eneloops but that is no longer the case. They are now made in China and are the absolute worst quality rechargeable batteries I have ever used. I believe the vast number of positive reviews were for the early version battery and do not account for the change in manufacturing that has taken place. Unfortunately I bought quite a few and did not catch how bad the quality was until after the warranty had expired. I wanted to share my experience so that others don't fall into the same trap. Best of luck if you decide to take the plunge!
