As long as the expiration date is current, the batteries are solid. And with Prime Shipping, you get it second day for free.
I pretty much know that a battery is a battery however like knowing when I had a new haircut it just feels better to use a name brand. Even though I prefer rechargeable this animals come in quite handy. You never have enough so it is best to purchase them in this value pack. Just be sure, when opening the pack to rip through the plastic part of the container or you will ruin the proof of purchase.The package says that the batteries have a 7-year shelf life but I do not see the expiration date.I will not go through all the nefarious used of this product like energizing your bunny. However, I am compelled to repeat they keep going' keep going' keep going'
Electricity captured in a tube. We live in the future. Not as long lasting as Duracell but good enough.
I bought this package because it was perfect for my immediate needs - I had just bought 2 bow lights and 2 stern lights for 2 kayaks, which required a grand total of 16 AA batteries to operate.I never use alkaline batteries unless I absolutely have to - I really try to stick with the NiMH batteries where they make sense, in high-drain electronics or items that will be used immediately. But these kayak lights will only be used when we are out on the water after dark, which is not likely to happen more than once a month. And they're LED based, so they'll probably last a year or more on a single set of batteries. Alkaline batteries just can't be beat for shelf life, and while they will be powering those lights this time next year, NiMH batteries would have to be charged before every outing because they drain themselves when not in use.
Did a Google search for a 16 pack of AA batteries and found this deal. The batteries didn't come in the blister pack shown in the image, but they did come in 4 small genuine Energizer cardboard boxes. I'm not sure if that affects shelf-life, but I guess I'll find out.
