Lithium AA rechargeable batteries - recommendations wanted

[SamDavis]

I have a few Godox flashguns that require AA batteries. My NiMH cells are finally starting to fade and was thinking some lithium rechargeables would be a good buy. Does anyone have any recommendations of brands, tried and tested please?

Alkaline and NiMH cells have a voltage of about 1.5V. Lithium provides 3.6 to 4V. There are some AA sized lithium cells that have a buck converter built in to step the voltage down, e.g XTAR, which are rechargeable with a USB C connector.

I think the IKEA Ladda 2450s are very good NiMH cells and for the price excellent.
If you already have the chargers associated, I think the move to Lithium AAs will be a bit of a gimmick, but someone needs to lead the way.
I look forward to hearing your experiences.

Thanks for your input. I do already have two NiMH chargers, so makes sense to stick with NiMH I suppose

These look wonderful for example.... but it's pot luck in reality I feel

Not really want you want as they're NiMH but these are good - I've probably about 20 of them which get used for anything from headlamps to the garage radio:

They're Eneloops, basically the same as the panasonic ones but cheaper.
