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.

  • The batteries can deliver around 2325 mAh in capacity testing, which is roughly 80% of the 2800 mAh rating.

    WoodSlayR

  • The batteries may work acceptably in single-battery devices like mice and small flashlights at about a $10 price point.

    WoodSlayR

  • The batteries can show similar internal resistance around 60 milliohms across tested units, which may help consistency in performance.

    WoodSlayR

  • The batteries can be used as inexpensive swap replacements for devices that run on AA NiMH rechargeables outdoors.

    poohbie

  • The batteries can be misrepresented as 2800 mAh, with some tests claiming real capacity around 280 to 306 mAh.

    08CivicSiwikipost

  • The batteries can show large capacity variation across units, with tested results ranging roughly from 1791 to 2350 mAh.

    WoodSlayR

  • The batteries may not reach the advertised 2800 mAh rating, since testing reported values around 1853 and 1829 mAh for some units.

    WoodSlayR

  • The batteries may discharge quickly in outdoor solar lights when charging conditions are non-ideal, making them better suited for frequent swapping.

QH54UYW6 still seems to work. You might need to switch to the one sold by Granicell Direct by clicking through "Other sellers on Amazon"

That's approaching 70% of rated capacity. Not great but I'm still betting the Granicells won't even be that. It'd be a nice surprise if I'm wrong but I'm not holding my breathe.

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?
Be careful as some use Lifepo4 cells and are not the same voltage.

Thanks OP. I have Eneloops for the door locks, but was running out of alkalines to use for the kids toys. These should do fine.

You've been conditioned to think that expensive = good and cheap means bad. It's not. There very much are products that are inexpensive that also deliver in their description. Abandon this way of thinking because it's exactly what western companies want you to think as they charge you a 800% markup.
