Pearstone rechargable batteries

Has anyone tried these batteries? They have good reviews.

No
but I do use Sanyo eneloop batteries exclusively.
They stay charged as advertised.

I've also used the Eneloops exclusively. The Pearstones do look intriguing.

I've always been an eneloop user but recently at work we need to get another charger so we went for one of the bundled chargers with Pearstone batteries. I've been using them for a few months now and I can't tell a difference between the 430EX flash with the Eneloop and the 430EX with the Pearstone. Most of the work I've done with the batteries is in our "studio" (that's what we call it here in the office buts its nothing more then an old cluttered closet) so I haven't tested the batteries to the limits of recycle time or how many shots I can get on a charge.

That's what I'm finding out, too. They're half the price. So far, so good.
