I've had some bad luck with Duracell AA's lately, leaking while sitting in the pack with a 2018 date and
very short life when used. We're having the best luck and longest life with Sam's Club Member's Mark.
It kinda saddens me that Duracell isn't what they used to be, my late Mother work at a Duracell plant
for many years. She used to be able to buy batteries at cost even after she retired, 10 years ago she
got AA's for 10ยข ea. They were limited to like $30/month.

$15 for 48

Just looked at the reviews on these and they look bad. I'm running 2 game cameras as security cameras
and I'm getting as much about 6 months life, they're on 24/7.

You can buy the equivalent at either Fry's or Ikea for about 10 cents per.

I have seen "DuraSell" batteries here for really cheap... As you can imagine they are crap....
