13,800-mAh AAA rechargable battery costing $1.15 gets tested

[Redaktion]

A forum member's test of a USB-C-rechargeable AAA battery pack costing an equivalent of $2.3 found its actual capacity was only about 380 mAh per unit, underscoring how important it is to be critical when bargain hunting. Measurements and a teardown photo are included.

The takeaway is largely predictable. When a product seems too good to be true, it most likely is.

What??

Entshittification of the internet.

Look, one more fake product. Its only less than 2usd. Lets buy it, write an article about it and reel in ad revenue and engagement to justify the tokens i spent to have the article written.

Oh, please. Who cares whether you used AI to write the article? But isn't writing about a topic like this a bit insulting to Notebookcheck readers' intelligence? Anyone with even a basic understanding of electronics knows that there's no way a AAA battery can have a 10,000 mAh capacity lol

Totally agree with JS. I've never visited this site before, this link appeared in my daily feed. I thought there would be something more to it than 'surprise - cheap batteries advertised as high capacity turn out to be nothing but the cheap batteries you'd expect'. I won't be returning.
