I have a shed load of these. They are good value and last a long time between charges.

One problem I've found tho is that they are a bit on the lardy side, and I've found they will not fit inside the battery compartments of some things. I got some Duracells for skinnier applications (I would guess those other brand names might be a similar better fit).

From experience, 7DayShop ones work fine in Wii controllers, Sony Walkman docking station, DX head torch, wall clocks.

They don't fit in interactive christmas carol singers, Wii sensor bar, and something else that has taken one of the duracells but can't remember what.

Hope that helps 🙂

I've got some in the bottom of my bag, perfect for emergency GPS/Camera/Torch/anything else AA.

Not sure what the distinction is between good to go and any other type of batteries but Tesco are selling off packs of single use 8 AA batteries for 18p at the moment.

That seems to be a feature of rechargeables, mine are the same and they're "branded".

I use them in a flash gun for my camera - they're good. richcc - the difference with these is they don't lose charge anywhere near as quickly in between uses.
