Bought these and will be doing a capacity test on them. Not holding my breathe but for 10 bucks, it was worth a shot. To be honest, at this price, I'll be surprised if they are anything more than 50% of rated capacity. I'll report back after some testing is completed. I also bought the other 16 Ct rechargeable battery deal on SD right now. BEVIGOR was the brand name for 13 bucks. Between the reviews I've been reading for both brands, I'm putting my money on the BEVIGOR batteries over these but I'll report back after all my testng is done. I'll be getting these Granicells tomorrow. but I just ordered the BEVIGORs today.

Not great, but A LOT better than I guessed. I ended up only doing 3, I messed up the setting on slot 1 so It only read slot 2, 3, and 4,but I got, 2325, 1853, and 1829mah from the 3 that took. I'm trying to upload the pictures but sometimes SD acts jenky when I do pic uploads. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. I'll keep trying but those are the numbers I got. That 2325 is a tad over 80% of rated capacity which blew my mind! Testing them takes forever because capacity testing on my charger is hard set to .5 amp and the testing cycle starts out with a charge to 100%, then a discharge to 0% and back to 100. Takes forever. Even if they were mostly charged to begin with, which they weren't, it still takes about 4 to 5 hrs to drain and 4 to 5 hrs to charge back up at .5 amp. About uploading images. Does anyone have any tips or tricks or maybe can help me find out what I'm doing wrong? I feel like I do the same process every time but somedays it works and other days it doesn't. So back to the batteries. One tested a bit over 80% and the other 2 where right around 67%. 2325mah is still less than the advertised 2800 by around 20%, but for the price of these I'd be super duper happy with 80% if they were all 80% I don't like that they are so different. Its not good when using 2 batteries in a device and one dies before the other one/ones and the voltage drops. That's why they recommend you should always put in all fresh batteries every time you change out batteries. But if the fresh batteries start at different capacities, it defeats the purpose of changing them at the same time. The internal resistance on all 3 batteries were all real close 60 milliohms. I'd like that to be lower, especially for high drain devices but all things considered, & "all things" mainly meaning price, 60 is not the worst number.

EDIT: I just loaded up 4 more batteries to do another capacity test run. Be back most likely tomorrow after I get the results.

Of course there's good products for less money but those are the exceptions, not the rule. To find good cheap ones, you might have to try 4 or 5 different ones, to figure out what's good. With that being said, there's a lot of truth to the saying "You get what you pay for". I understand what your saying and sometimes you can get lucky and it's right but more times than not it's not. I'm more of a buy once cry once kind of guy. For the most part, higher quality merch cost more to make so it cost more to buy. It's that simple.

These Granicell AA NiMH rechargeables are aimed at low cost everyday use, especially solar lights, toys, mice, and other single battery devices. Capacity testing landed anywhere from about 1,791 to 2,350 mAh on multiple batteries, with one reading at 2,325 mAh, so the pack can be far closer to the label than expected. The spread between cells is wide, though, and that makes them a weaker fit for devices that use multiple batteries together. Outdoor solar charging can also wear NiMH cells down quickly, so they make more sense as cheap swap batteries than long life replacements.

Common Questions (5)

  • Measured capacities reported in testing range from about 1,791 to 2,350mAh on multiple cells, with one result around 2,325mAh. That is below the 2,800mAh label, but still roughly 65% to 84% of rated capacity depending on the cell.

    WoodSlayRWoodSlayRWoodSlayR

  • A true capacity test requires fully cycling the battery: charge it to 100%, discharge it to 0%, then recharge it and read the final discharge result. A partial charge can make the measured mAh look lower or otherwise misleading.

    WoodSlayRWoodSlayRpoohbie

  • They can work in solar lights, but outdoor solar charging can wear out NiMH cells quickly if the panels are dirty or charging is weak. They are best suited as cheap replacement batteries you swap out when they no longer hold a charge.

    BryanS5944poohbie

  • Yes, if the Hampton lights use the same-size AA NiMH cells and the same voltage. They are not suitable if the light uses LiFePO4 cells, which are a different voltage than NiMH.

    MiksMehgeorged486

  • They are a better fit for single-battery devices like mice or small flashlights. The tested cells vary a lot in capacity, so in devices using multiple batteries one cell can die earlier and drag performance down.

Quote from BryanS5944 View quoted comment :
Several reviews mentioned they worked well in solar lights, so going to give them a try in the fence post solars over at my parent's house. I built the fence back in 2020 and the lights held up for several years, but have since gone dead. My dad is partially to blame for not regularly cleaning the solar panels. I get on his case, but revert to "you can lead a horse to water, but can't make it drink".
Outdoor solar lights would kill nimh batteries pretty quickly given non-ideal charging patterns, so it seems well suited to be using dirt cheap batteries like these and just changing them as they no longer hold a charge.

I'm not an electrical expert..so my question is I have Hampton solar pathway lights that has solar recharge and on the back it has the same size battery that's recharged during day . I feel its capacity is small so it discharges after 4 hrs. Can I use this pack to replace those batteries?
