Nice batteries.
5 out of 5 stars
Nice batteries.
This is the second time I bought this batteries, so far I've not had any problem using them. I use them in a crib mobile thay my baby usenfor at least 1 hour a day, and it can work for at least 1 month or more, depending how often we use it. The durability of the batteries depend on how you storage them, too, so, I recommend don't put the old batteries in the same package of the new batteries. The batteries are well packed, and there coming separated in group of 4, it came with some instructions in different languages including Spanish. In the picture you're gonna see only 8 batteries because I'm using the first 4 already. I recommend this product because of the good quality, durability, safety and price. I hope this review can help you to decide to buy this product.

    5.0 out of 5 stars great C Batteries that work as expected. all the voltages were the same and should last plenty long.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2025
    Size: 4 Count (C/LR14)Verified Purchase
    works as expected. installed these in a Motion Activated Wall Mounted light in my attic so it would turn on some lights to the Landing Area in my attic the second i bring the ladder down so i can more easily see my way up to turn on the entire attic lighting system which has a switch inside the attic. They were a good price since the only other option in my small town is a Dollar General which i refuse to support unless it's an emergency. These batteries are not rechargeable but should last a very long time since they only turn on a relatively small LED Light for about 5 minutes per activation.

    Decent batteries. They don't give off any heat. The batteries are the perfect weight and fit as they should in all applications. I don't think they last quite as long as the major brands. But they are cheaper in price. The batteries function as they should.

    Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2025
    Size: 4 Count (C/LR14)Verified Purchase
    I use these in my kid’s interactive puppy toy and they fit perfectly and deliver the right voltage. The battery life lasts us around 6 months, which I think is great. They feel durable and are good value for money.

    Pluses:
    Long life (about 6 months in our toy)
    Fit as expected, correct voltage
    Durable and reliable
    Great price compared to name brands

    Minuses:
    Packaging is way too tough — I struggled to open it last time!

    Overall, very dependable C-cell batteries that get the job done.
