For less than a dolar for a pair battery, and can tahan more than 12 months, it is a very value buy 😁

I suggest not to buy cheap batteries... very easy to leak and ruin your electronics.

cheap batteries from diy is good. it will deplete before it leak.. not like energizer or everyday, it will leak before it deplete if you just use it on tv or ac remotes.

old type battery charger, needs 2 battery (pairs) to charge, probably not suitable to use with newer bbattery which is lithium based (lion) vs old type Cadmium bad (cd)

why? electrolyte leak easily? don't wanna damage my clock.

Yes. I stop using those cheap battery. Specially button battery.

There damage the device and cost me more to replace the device than the battery.

No point to use cheap battery.

If want cheap cost, get the rechargeable. Initial cost is high. But cost less when use. And don't leak.

Same here... the clock shop dont recommend alkaline battery. too "powerful" for the clock.


https://www.panasonic.com/my/consumer/batte...se-battery.html
https://www.eveready.com/batteries/super-heavy-duty

Dont get those cheap brands (tesco, MY DIY). Very easy to leak. And one particular brand that I avoid is Duracell. Every single one that I use also leak. Now I only use the panasonic manganese for those low power device like clock/remote.

And its ok that they don't last long, because the longer you use, the higher chance it will leak (any brand). So it is better change it once in a while.

Plan on rotate fan using AAA battery.

Last time , normal 1 time use tesco battery can last for 2 week , average 1 hours usage perday.

Now , only less than a week , if continue using 1-8 hours gone.I know the portable FAN degrade but it's not totally spoil , though of reuse it using rechargeable battery.

Normally , what are the different on rechargeable battery if using on those low power like alarm clock remote control ? any harm and leak ? I remember some said rechargeable battery cannot be use on certain device and cannot mix together with other battery.

Searching for good deals on AAA battery for alarm clock, flashlight, alarm, etc. Some of the things are emergency items, so just tuck the battery in and will never use the devices (touch wood).
Not gonna use it for toys or motorized item as I don't have any.
Does buying the cheapest rechargeable AA/AAA for this purpose even make sense? If yes, what model (battery/cell) do you recommend?
Share your best loot.

This DoublePow  sweat.gif  rechargeable cell reliable? Lots of sale on shopee. I can put my super old GP Rapid PowerBank charger to good use.
