  Never heard of these… How do they compare to Eneloop's or GP Recyko's?

  Buying junk rechargables is a false economy. Just do it right and get Imedions or Eneloops.

  And a good charger - a cheap charger will ruin your good batteries.

    Amen to that. I just bought a Maha charger, 20 AAs and 4 AAAs for all the kids toys.

    It's false economy buying Alkaline batteries all the time, and this way I'll always have a few spare batteries ready to roll when needed.

    "Daddy, Tigger broken" turns into tears rather quickly.

      especially when you're drunk and your team is 5 points down with 3 minutes to go.

    I'm looking for rechargable AAA for my wireless keyboard. Is this good enough for them?

      No - as everyone has been saying, they're crap. No good for anything.

      (Are you sure you want AAA for a wireless KB? Only ever seen them with AAs.)

      Head to http://protog.com.au/ - great prices and service.

      Eneloops are your best bet for reliable batteries.

      I've found Varta Long Life Accu batteries to be good as well. You can find these in any electronics store.

        I prefer Imedions, (having run some of each through a bunch of camera flashes), but they're pretty closely matched.

      Anything would be fine for a keyboard.
      My keyboards go 1-2+ years on normal batteries.

      Even if these are really bad and only last 1 year in your keyboard it is easy to put them on a charger and charge them when you are given a low battery notification.

        Crap batteries don't hold a charge, and certainly not for "a year".

  "Please note, you may need to charge up the batteries before use."

  Review from CandlePowerForums: "I have these Powerbase Instant AAA LSD batteries. From the very start they would not hold a charge for long while in storage. They even perform worse than some of my non-LSD AAA rechargeables."

    Bingo!
    6 months only.
    This is your standard energizer battery…

      Ouch energizer comparison . Anything that compares to those crap batteries can't be good . I have bought no brand name LSD's and they have been good and are still going . Maybe in this case the LSD moniker may be poetic license .

  what are LSDs..lucy's sky of Diamonds?

    Life, Sex and Death.

    I jest, LSD's an acronym for low self discharge batteries.
