Does anyone know if these are legit? (How many cycles)
they are fine for the price. at least in my experience they fail more randomly than after a specific amount of cycles. they just get bad after a certain amount of time.
while eneloops / ladda hold up, I prefere these here because of the price. even if they go bad earlier, they are worth it
Opus BT-C2400 is one of the best chargers for keeping your rechargeables lasting longer. LaCrosse chargers have been discontinued for a while. The Opus is very similar but with some upgraded features and performance compared to the LaCrosse. I have a LaCrosse BC-700. https://www.amazon.com/BT-C2400-B...165&sr=8-6

Thank you for the suggestion. My price tracker tool shows them at $33-$34 earlier this year.
How is the longevity/performance of regular vs higher capacity?
Hi-cap of ANY NiMh does not have the longevity of 'standard'. That's the price of hi-cap. Even Eneloop notes that in its information.
The 'grain of truth' in that statement is MUCH depends on the battery quality. Amazon basics change sources sometimes. NO INFORMATION WORTH A DAMN IS EVER PROVIDED. Unfortunately MOST of the Amazon reviews on batteries are messed up and pretty useless unless you know what you are looking for.
Note-pretty much any of the 2800mAh go to hell pretty fast. If they claim higher than 2800, then it's crap for sure.
