"This pack of 50 Industrial Duracell AAA batteries is an absolute bargain!
The batteries are of course original Duracell batteries.
The only difference is that the packaging has been designed and packaged for wholesale and professional trade customers (or battery eating households as mine)
You receive a big box with 5 smaller boxes of 10.
These Duracell Industrial AA alkaline batteries are ideal for any busy user by providing the best performance and durability at only 0.24p per battery."

Cold. Here is the battery benchmark chart where you can see non-branded, supermarket and poundshop Alkalines performing better than duracell, for half the cost.

Thanks OP for taking the time. It may well get hot as people see Duracell and click "Hot".
However better-rated batteries can be found for 12-15p per cell (normal price) on the high street, so this is NOT good value for money.
You are paying 10p for the cell and 16p extra for it to have Duracell printed on the side.

Brilliantly written. We'll get the message through one of these days. It's amazing how supposedly savvy HUKDers get seduced by the word Duracell.

Hi Nujol,
I confess I normally get these for all those gadgets that I did not need but came up on HUKD!, but did not know about other batteries a lot cheaper, could you guide me which ones.
Many thanks

Better to buy from a manufacturer which does not lie and charge over inflated prices.
Would you buy from a company which sold snake oil

Quote of the year so far :disappointed:
Often a certain report gets quoted on here which when you try and Google it only shows up the research company no other information about how or who they are or their links to the battery companies.
What is right for one application may not be right for another, what I can tell you is for what we use batteries for these ones last longer than IKEA, pound shops and other big makes. Now what will happen is I will get criticised but like mpg you can only see what happens in the real world conditions not in a lab :smiley:
One watch out, make sure you buy batteries from a reputable source, you wouldn't think so but batteries are one of the most faked products out there.

I used some cheaper (sony, panasonic, kodak etc) batteries for example for my weather station and I had to replace them after about 2 weeks. I bought and started using these two monts ago and they are still as good as new. I paid £2 per pack of 10 :smiley: discount in plumb center :smiley:

I believe these are better value batteries as they are 100 percent legit from Energizer, and if it's your first Ryman order, then you can get 20 percent discount, meaning 24 AAA batteries for just £4 if you subscribe to their news letter from the home page.
