The quality of Rechargeable Batteries is as broad, as it's long.
I've a Duracell AA/AAA Charger, I use Duracell Rechargeables.
When firing up a new 'batteries included' item. I change the batteries for a fully charged set, from the off. Charging the supplied set, at my leisure. I keep the cheap batteries for utilitarian household items; changing all the batteries just before Christmas; so, they at least get changed, once a year. Works for me.
