TYBATT AA 2800mAh Rechargeable Batteries Review

Good quality batteries with consistent power and a high mAh, I have been using rechargeable batteries for many years now but have never really fully understood the mAh and the difference between 1.2v and 1.5v with non-rechargeable batteries so before making a purchase I did a bit of research and decided on purchasing these with a good value price and high mAh. I use them in several devices and always keep a box of non-rechargeable batteries on my desk for the children’s toys as experience has taught me not to give them rechargeable as they often get thrown out with the toy when it breaks.

They arrived in a little flip top box containing the eight batteries in two separate clear plastic clip lock storage boxes quite neat for storage, these come pre-charged so two went straight into my Xbox One controller, I play every night and my daughter always plays at the weekend and this set lasted over 16 hours play before needing charging which is great as my old set only last around 6 now and a new set of non-rechargeable around 12 hours and then need throwing away.

As I said at the beginning I did a bit of research on the differences between 1.2v and 1.5v and the meaning of mAh so for anyone who is as I was and doesn’t know the mAh stands for milli Ampere hour or milli Amp hour and is a measure of the battery's energy storage capacity so the higher the mAh the longer it should last.

Non-rechargeable AA batteries normally have a 1.5v standard while AA rechargeable batteries normally have a 1.2v standard, with non-rechargeable AA batteries they start at 1.5v and make a steady decline in power and once they drop below a rate of 1.0v they cease to work depending on the device.

Rechargeable AA batteries normally have a 1.2v standard and the drop rate is different they keep at that steady power delivery rate until they are depleted giving a steadier power over an extended period, you can find some products need an initial delivery rate above 1.2v and rechargeable batteries will not work in such devices, I hope this is makes sense to anyone who didn’t know.

Summary
**********
Overall good solid high power batteries with a consistent power delivery that last for ages and are good value, I’m pleased with them.

UltraFire 18650 Rechargeable Batteries 2800mAh Review

Good quality and consistent, I have a Andoer 60 LED lamp I use and needed two batteries for it and after having a look round decided on these as they looked ideal for the job and good value for a pair of branded batteries.

They arrived in a small flip top box in individual boxes wrapped in bubble wrap protection and after opening them up I put them into my Andoer lamp and put them on charge as this has a charge socket built in, I do have a separate battery charger for charging 18650 batteries as I use ecigs that take them but have found it is rare I use it due to them already having inbuilt charge sockets (just as a note: these are not suitable for use in ecigs).

After charging I wanted to give them a good test and also have a torch that takes a single 18650 battery so thought this idea and fitted both batteries in it one after the other leaving it turned on until the battery totally drained, the first battery lasted 48 minutes and the second 47 minutes a very good result showing not only are they consistent but they lasted 22 minutes longer than the battery I am currently using in it.

I have added a short video and will also add some pictures showing unboxing, fitting them into my torch and Andoer lamp showing them working.

GP BATTERIES Ultra Alkaline AA Batteries 24 Pack

I needed a decent quantity of AA batteries due to the fact I use high quality rechargeable batteries in my keyboard, Xbox One controller and mainly ‘My Stuff’, over time these disappear into items such as my children’s toys, remote controls and my wife’s numerous gadgets never to be seen again.

This pack is ideal and I have put on the side so now anyone after a AA battery is pointed to this pack, they are good quality and hold a decent amount of power as I tested four in my daughters most battery hungry toy which was still dancing round the floor two hours later and it would normally wipe out a cheap set in under a hour. At the time I ordered £6.15 for 24 the cheapest of this brand I could find. Overall I am pleased with this purchase and they come in a handy little dispensing box which is a bonus.

• Longer operating time
• Best for power hungry devices
• Handy storage box
