Certainly inexpensive for 1.5v Li AA rechargeable. Know what you.....might....be getting.
I DO NOT have experience with these particular cells. But I DO have and tested:
HW 1.5v AA 3500mWh/2333mAh - Mine are the NON-USB charging. USB charging provides some convenience to some people BUT, at the expense of some capacity. It's a challenge to put all the components in the small 'can'. USB charging extracts this penalty.

The capacity of this in real testing at 0.5A - mAh current for 4 cells is:
- 1880-81%; 1870-80%; 1870-80%; 1764-76%
So the probable capacity of these is: 2800mWh/1.5v = 1897mAh x >0.80 (% capacity of the previous cells) = ~1500mAh. This could be worse due to the USB charging penalty.

I do not know is this cell line provides step down voltage. The 3500mWh cells do. This is what I found:
When ~480mAh remains they drop from 1.5v > 1.1v. This allows some notificatio that the cell needs charging.
The down side is MUCH longer time spent at 1.1v, at the expense of less time spent at 1.5v. So the 3500mWh cells have a 1.5v working capacity of ~1400mAh.

Learn what a buck converter is and then you will understand.

But it won't, because it can't.

Spend an extra $2.50 and get an 8 pack with usb c charger. Likely the same real world capacity as these.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that sounds like it would be less than an alkaline AA battery

Most rechargeables haves lower capacity than alkaline. There are a few things going on, though. One is usable capacity depends on current discharge rate, higher discharge rate tends to lead to less usable capacity for alkaline than say Nimh. Also, there's voltage drop, alkaline starts at 1.5v and goes down to 0.9ish over the course of being discharged, so if your device needs more voltage to work, it'll die while the alkaline still has plenty of " life" left. Nimh will quickly go to 1.2v and stay there, lithium which are stepped down to 1.5v by internal circuitry will stay close to 1.5 until dead. That said, these particular cells seem pretty anemic.

Also, afaik there's no "eneloop" of lithium aa/aaa cells, they're all from manufacturers of varying track records who may overstate capacity and cut corners on safety. Also, the technology is in its infancy, so even cells from somewhat reputable brands like EBL tend to lose a ton of capacity after a few tens of use cycles (according to NYT wirecutter tests).
