Buyer beware. I have bought all different sizes of Amazon batteries multiple times over the years. These are the only batteries I've ever found to not work in everything. It is totally random when it happens but on occasion, I've gone to put these in a device and find that they simply refused to power it. I usually have several kinds of batteries on hand in a big organizer case and that's the only way I came to find that out.
I also just blindly believed that buying brand new batteries meant they would obviously have a charge. Not these. Just a few days ago, I fell victim to the Amazon batteries not working in a random remote and swapped them out with Energizer and it worked. I decided to use the battery meter on the rest of the case of batteries just to make sure and despite never having been used, a large handful of the Amazon AA and AAA batteries were completely dead. No reason. Just no charge at all despite being kept in a foam organizing hard case with no ability to contact anything else.
I'm not saying don't order these. I'm sure there are plenty of folks that have been lucky over years of buying these. After being a long time user of them, along with other brands, I just can't justify buying them anymore after this recent revelation.
