You need the yongnuo 560tx controller to control them. They are great cheap off camera flashes.
But their radio signals are easily interfered with. Like if you shoot at a building rooftop with lots of antennas and satellites around they might not work properly.
When no radio conflicts they usually work perfect.

You can buy it from Lazada, 7 days return policy.
For AA batteries, you can look for Fujitsu low self discharge rechargeable battery too since it is made in Japan.
