This is a rather unknown battery size for many people. It is used for a lot of stuff, mostly battery packs, but may also be used inside regular C or D cell of the low capacity types. These cells are delivered with tabs, making it easier to use the for packs without a battery welder.











The cells do not match completely, this is not a serious problem with NiMH, the capacity specifications may also be a bit on the high side.















Conclusion

The cells are rated for high capacity and current, these ratings may be a bit optimistic, but they have fairly high capacity and can deliver a lot of current.
