Batteries AA NiCd 600mAh 1.2V Rechargeable for Solar Garden Lights (16pcs AA)...

All things considered, the batteries did work pretty well but I feel like they lost a charge a lot faster than conventional batteries I would get at the store. I feel like trying to be more eco-friendly and sustainable by using rechargeable batteries is a great thing but at the same time, I feel like they haven't gotten to the point where they can make the charge for rechargeable battery last as long as when they would come in a packet at the checkout area of any major grocery store.

Great batteries. Last long

I'm a recent convert to rechargeable batteries, so I ordered a number of different brands to see which worked best. At $0.87 each, these Yxzheng batteries were the least expensive ones that I ordered. While they work fine, I have since learned about their limitations and why they are less expensive. When I first started ordering rechargeable batteries, I had no idea what the mAh number was about, but have since learned that it stands for "milli ampere-hour" and is a measure of a battery's capacity. At 700mAh, these batteries have a relatively low capacity, which means that a full charge will not last as long as batteries with a higher mAh rating (thus the lower price). That being said, if these batteries are used for the right purposes, they will last plently long before needing to be recharged. What are the "right" purposes? In my case, I use them for TV remotes and electronic candles, and they last as long as non-rechargeable batteries in thise applications. The uses under which these batteries will drain quickly are in items that have motors (like certain childrens toys). In general, I am pleased with these batteries and they will save me a good amount of money in the long run.

I have outdoor deck post lights that were looking dim despite full sunlight. These batteries did the job. Highly recommend!
