No, they do not perform just as well. The biggest downfall for NiMH batteries is their incredibly rapid power loss (unused batteries will be nearly dead within 30 days from a 100% charge). The enelops (Rayovac also has a similar battery technology, but I don't recall the name off-hand) do not suffer from this sort of extreme power loss (review with tests), making them much more convenient to use.
