Duracell

Ok, So what do Duracell batteries have that other batteries don't? Those poor bunnies :o(

Better marketing....that's about it.....I have used many different brands in high drain applications and found very little difference between most types of good makes.

Agreed. Even the real cheapies are a good financial decision, they may only last half as long but only cost a quarter of the price.

a bigger price tag

The Charity shop down the town actually sells those things for less than 1/2 price!! Cool huh?

I saw a Computer mag article a while back that tested about 6 diiferent makes of AA batteries and it was some Tescos own brand that came out tops. I think the mag was Computeractive. Duracell came in second. From what I remember the Tescos lasted about 100 hours and the Duracells about 96 hours. I cant recall exactly what the test was but it was identical for all the batteries and as you can see it was pretty close. My Logitech mouse uses 2 AA's and i have tried all sorts but Duracell wins hands down every time On average they last 3 months and others that i have used last around 6 weeks.
