For the past year or so, I've noticed that Eveready batteries don't last as long as they used to.

Anyone else has the same experience?

They are what the supermarkets I go to have on display. So, that's what I picked, for convenience.

But it so happens that I've just got some DIY batteries. Let see how that goes.

Now, there is an issue with rechargeable batteries.

Non-rechargeable batteries are 1.5 volt.

Re-chargeable batteries are 1.2 volt.

Not all devices can run on rechargeable batteries.

Akaline battery = legendary for ruining devices by leaking.

Get energizer lithium instead or eneloop rechargeable.

Yes, the voltage is a problem.

If you google, some would say it's not a problem because the "power delivery" is the same regardless of voltage.

In practice, some devices work with rechargeable, and some just don't.
