No issue with chargers, just that they're not the deal they used to be when they were rebadged Eneloops. Now they're just run-of-the-mill, no-name Chinese cells that likely aren't actually 800mAh and will have a higher failure rate.

Personally, this 16-pack of 1100mAh EBLs for $12.79 are a better buy: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DNPT1A4

Obviously it's more per cell, but they are higher capacity (not 1100mAh, of course, but mine are consistently 900-950mAh). I have had good luck with them, anyway.
These batteries are very low quality. Avoid. I regret buying both AAA and AA sizes. Buy Eneloop or Panasonic. Also, Ikea branded batteries are supposed to be rebadged Eneloop. I bought some recently, they seem to be working fine. Only time will tell if they are decent in the long run or not.
Been waiting for the AAs

I got both seems like I get more issues with the ebls when recharging them. A lot of them in my dumb and smart chargers don't know when they are full and they keep on recharging them causing a ton of overheating. I always have to baby them.

The Amazon ones I get the same issues once in awhile but not as frequent with the ebls. Not sure if it is because of their non-standard higher battery capacity it makes the chargers go wonky.

Ebls seem to lose more capacity over time so I feel they end up being the same.

If you guys need 1.5v lithium rechargeable I do recommend the red EBL ones. I use them in my blink doorbell. Working awesome.

I am curious what people mean when they say failure rates? I have literally hundreds of rechargeable batteries (my blinds each take 12AAs and I have 3 kids, the need is real). In 7 years I've never had one (amazon, tenergy, ebo, eneloop combination) fail. Sometimes they don't charge until I jump them with another battery, but that takes seconds. Where are all these failures coming from?

I've had a spate of made-in-Japan AA failures recently - it caused me to "needlessly" buy a new blood pressure monitor (not really, it was a good price, and backups are good.) A handful of standard capacity Eneloops and high-capacity Energizers. These were in the 5-10 year-old range - the battery analyzer measured far below 1000 mAh after "reconditioning", and they wouldn't put out enough current to spin a single AA trimmer at full voltage. Just dropped them off at Home Depot earlier.

I think the standard capacity AmazonBasics are fine compared to alkalines - I've recently bought 24-packs of AA and AAAs. I save the Eneloop AAs for need-to-work-in-emergency duty. And I also bought two Opus NiMH-only analyzers on closeout because four slots gets really limiting for testing and reconditioning cycles.

I've bought these EBLs and they are trash! Cheap yes but even at this discounted price it's not worth it

I've had decent experiences with the Amazon Basics NiMH that are made in Malaysia and some older ones from China. The recent Malaysian AAAs were extremely impressive, all testing 5-11% over their rated capacity. Extremely low self-discharge as well. I do not recommend EBL at all. They seem to substantially inflate their ratings now. The set I recently bought from them didn't even average 75% of their rated capacity. Other reviewers seem to confirm my findings.

Quote from Luigis3rdcousin :
I don't understand because I've been really impressed by the Amazon AA batteries in the green body a few months ago, they are hugely better than many of the other Chinese cheap brands out there and have kept up with regular energizer batteries.

Are these green body ones no longer high capacity now or what?
Amazon has two different lines, one is standard capacity and one is high capacity. I haven't used the high capacity ones but I've had decent experiences with the standard capacity models, whether made in Malaysia or China. In general, I avoid high capacity NiMH because they don't hold up well long term and they have higher self-discharge.

Quote from dbug12 :
FWIW: I'm crazy and like to do a capacity test on my batteries, and then I label them based on their tested capacity and not their stated capacity. The green-body Amazon rechargeable AAAs consistently come in over stated capacity, and the EBLs consistently at least 10% under. All my batteries are at least a year old, not sure when any supplier change would have happened.
Amazon regularly alternates between ones made in China and made in Malaysia. The Malaysian Amazon AAAs I've tested also consistently came in over their rated capacity. The AAs weren't quite as impressive but still decent. EBLs are just outright fraudulently rated. The EBLs I've tested don't even average 75% of their rating. I'll take Amazon over EBL any day.

Unless you need the extra capacity and will use it shortly after charging, I suggest avoiding high capacity NiMH. They have a much shorter service/cycle life and higher self-discharge. Also, even when they stop being able to power high draw devices, they may still be good enough for low drain devices, like remotes and clocks.

Do these tend to be wider than the normal AAA batteries. I bought the AA batteries and they are wider than other brands making it hard to fit three into some items

If the batteries in the lights are in the AAA format, yes.

Curious what charger people are using that read out the volts and can rejuvenate batteries?

I bought the La Crosse BC-9009 in 2008 and have yet to have any of the various "bugs" with it. Based on that experience, I bought two of the Opus BT-C2000 (with updated firmware) when I recently saw them for $19.95. There are plenty more options - I personally avoided any 18650-compatible chargers with sliding contacts.

This can get expensive - there's a reason I described the AmazonBasics as being "fine compared to alkaline".

much better deal than the recent woot deal for the same thing. oddly, I ordered those on Apr 6, and three weeks later they still hadn't even shipped them so I emailed them. They refunded and shipped them the next day, which is pretty cool. still bought these too though!
