About
I am just an ordinary person like everyone else, but I am not a massive eBayer, hence my low feedback even though I've been a member a long time, I only buy occasionally as I need something, so my numbers will never truly affirm how genuine I am.

A must have for a battery hungry family.
These are pretty much regarded as the best on the market of it's type, but you do need to think through what you want from this type of battery, as there is another Pro version in this range that packs even more power, but it's lifespan is less, and the cost is even more expensive, so those ones are more for seriously high demand.
But for these ones are great all rounders, they come ready charged to use out of the box, and will stay like that for years, of course there is going to be a residual discharge while in that state, but with a 10 year discharge, it still has power, albeit down to a 30% charge left.
I got some advertised as; "Worlds Best Battery" around 15 years or more ago, they were 2 tone coloured (from memory these were evolved from those ones), and I still have those and use them just fine today, they are very happy in our remote controls, they may not hold as much charge, or last as long when new, and we are having to occasionally throw them away as the become useless, but just think what 15 years of only having to buy the amount of battery's you would need\use over that time frame, and what they would cost you, it's scary, especially at today's prices, so these will save you a fortune, and are a serious investment.
Obviously if you have no kids and just 1 or 2 gadgets that require battery's, you won't see the full potential, But, for those with kids, and more so gadgets (including the kids toys), then these are a no brainer, you can't afford to not to get these, I know the cost is a killer, well it is for me, but just slowly build up from 4 pack ones 1 at a time, and you will soon start to benefit, and wonder why you haven't found these before (assuming your a 1st timer), I haven't bought anything but these since finding them, but then we do have a lot of items needing such battery's.

Talk about a difference
I have been going over to LED bulbs for a long time now, but I have had to pause in getting these full size bulbs for quite a while now, the one I bought could barely light the toilet, and I saw many such comments from others saying the similar thing, so I just stuck to the spotlights and other small bulbs, until now that is.
With the growing number of such bulbs now suggested a big change in quality, and boy is that right, but I did do a lot of looking around before choosing these ones, and it seriously paid off, the result was far greater than I ever expected, it was like the difference between day, and night.
I have always used 100w bulbs in main area's, that hasn't changed in over 40 years, what has changed though was the bulbs, I went from the traditional bulb (which has outlasted anything else I have ever had), I know this because I still have 1 bulb that I used for all these years, and is still going strong now, but with the cost of energy increasing, so did the need to use lower energy bulbs, so I started using the CFL bulbs, yes they lowered bills, but I never had 1 last longer than maybe 5 years, and the downside was the size, they would not fit in many types of light fitting due to the bulkiness of them.
Then I started to see if things have changed, well they have, impressively so, but it really paid off in looking around, I saw a lot of bulbs that just had no quality about them, people are quick to choose the cheap(er) ones without a thought apart from saving maybe, an extra pint of beer at the pub, but given how high a fire risk something like these can be, although the same is true of anything electrical, so always look for the CE compliance on what you get, as it means they have reached the standard of safety required in the UK.
Many of the bulbs I saw were clearly a poor quality, blatant 'pinch' marks where the plastic meets the metal to pull it all together, and not even reaching where they should be (on the shoulder of the base\cap), some even looked like they were ready to fall off they were so bad, but if you look at the quality of this bulb, then see one of the type I have warned about, these are seamless.
The other parts that deserve noting are as follows;
Like I said, I've always used 100w bulbs, or their equivalent in low energy bulbs, and these were not as bright, and the CFL ones took a few minutes to reach it's full brightness, which was the biggest drawback with these, and the spread of light from these were not as good as you could need.
Then these LED bulbs blew me away, it is the brightest 100w bulb I have ever seen of any type (proper bulbs that is), now as I was looking around I saw a few comments about the angle of the light emitted, A60 was the term that goes with this light spread, this type not only means you get downward light, you also get a much wider spread of it's light, not only on the floor, the level light is raised considerably, which makes a very big difference where a light is near the stairs, you can see the steps as you go up them so much more than normal, but obviously the positioning will be a major factor in this.
There is 1 further factor in any bulb, that's it colour spectrum, these ones are supposedly warm white 2700k, this is the traditional 'yellowish' colour, but I must say they look like neutral light 5000k(ish) which is a very clean light, then daylight 7000k(ish) which is really bright as the name suggests, but some may argue this, but it's about perception, everyone sees things differently, but hopefully this will help those in search of the light at the end of the tunnel LOL, sorry couldn't resist.

You don't become a market leader without having impressive products, and innovating all the time to get better and better.
What's to say(?), being a market leader it is one of 2 go to batteries, I'm not saying any other ones are no good, but you get what you pay for, there are many times I've bought cheap no name ones, but only as a disposable source with Xmas Dec's that drink battery juice, these are just too expensive for such things.
