Excellent money saver, but of questionable durability
I've been using these for almost eighteen months to power guitar pedals, tuner, metronome, headphone amp, etc. The device among these with the largest current consumption is an FEA compressor (30mA). In all cases the battery will keep the devices running without problem through performances, and rehearsals.
For those used to alkaline batteries, watch out for the discharge curve of NiMH cells; you will not get that slow discharge, and thus plenty of warning before needing to change batteries, that you get with alkaline batteries, and you need to get into the habit of changing, and recharging, batteries preemptively.
Other than that? No memory effect; high capacity cells; reasonably quick charging, etc.
What?s not to like? After 12+ months of use, one of my batteries has developed crystalline residue on one of the terminals. Thus the three stars on quality, and the comment about questionable durability. ymmv, but it's still hard to argue that it isn't excellent value for money.

Got 4 of them for 5 years now. Haven't used them so much but they are good. In a boss tu3 they don't last for long lately, but they are becoming old so I guess it's normal. When they were newer I used to use them as a power source for active pickups and they were long lasting

Dura-who?!
Been using rechargeable Duracell batteries for a long time now. Lost a couple of the last year or so, and decided to try something new.
These bad boys blow them out of the water. Last for far longer.
The only downside is they are a *teeny tiny little* bit bigger so are a SNUG fit in some things. But that really is a minor complaint. They work beautifully.

Great little fellah.
I use these batteries for my acoustic electronics. The battery lasts quite long. I bought 3, 2 for chargin dock and 1 always ready to use . The Ansmann Powerline 2 Charger is great for these, quite fast, and solid build. Happy to recommend both.

Very good for wireless systems
This is very good solution for my SHURE ULX-P systems which are pretty old and use 9V batteries. one new non-rechargeable battery is enough for 4-5 hours only. and ordinary events takes maybe 6+ hours. So one event cost me 4-6 batteries to purchase. That is why I tries to use this rechargeable batteries and result was surprising. full charge and new battery can handle 6 hours and doesn't stop the mics. Thus it is very cost efficient solution not to buy 9V batteries every time.

Totally reliable
Many people buy rechargeable batteries as a way to not spend so much money with normal batteries for their equipment, but soon they dump them because they are not reliable, they only last a few hours per charge, etc... I was one of these people untill a short time ago. A friend of mine recomended Fischer Amps batteries, so I gave them a try: not only are they reliable and long lasting after every charge, they outlast some major brand normal batteries! A must have for anyone that uses lots a batteries.

Super!
I bought 2 of these rechargeable batteries to use in my electro-acoustic guitar. I lost count when I recharged it last. I never had like this battery. Another great product Fischer Amps! Well done.
