How many MAH are the Varta batteries vs the Duracell ones ?
Both are roughly zero mega-amps. (Case matters in SI units)
But they are all much the same in capacity. I've had trouble with some no-name or house brand leaking, so just use Varta now.
Duracell and Energizer are horribly overpriced by their Australian importers.edit: Ikea is fine too, if you don't get lost for three hours in the Ikea maze. They are probably made by Varta.
+1 for the nostalgia, lol.
Is there no AAA deal like this?
yes.. i just got 3x40 AA and 2x40 AAA.. same price
just ebay search it.. or go to their ebay store.
just ebay search it..
Why put it in the title if you can't be bothered posting the link ???
Thanks
Amazing, I didn't know about these Varta alkalines from Bunnings! I've been waiting for a cheap non-rechargable AA post for a year now and this is it!
Do you know if they leak from long-term installation?
duracell have replaced my equipment when their batteries have leaked.. i will always buy duracell now..
Interesting. I think i need to call them, i just had Duracell destroy my Oral B timer.
it was with MAGLITE so im not sure.. but i think they test it to make sure you havent had any other batteries in them, and you need to leave the duracells in it that destroyed them.
MAGLITE have a life time warranty, they would have fixed it too.
Or IKEA has 10-pack Alkalines for $2.99. http://www.ikea.com/au/en/search/?query=+Battery+alkaline which ranks at the same level as the Varta Long Life in the battery shootout at http://www.laurinieminen.com/index.php?page=projects&id=batt… . Duracell Plus ranks a few positions above both but not worth the extra $4.75 per 40 pack for it.
Energiser are way better, but the good thing about the Duracells is that they recharge easily.
Energiser are way better
No, just marginally better in capacity. Unless you mean the Lithium ones.
Works for me, thanks
in terms of performance/price bunnings vartas can't beatable.
I bought some Varta ones from Bunnings for a reticulation timer at home. It worked for 4 days before it started flashing 'low battery'. Put Duracells in and it's been going for around 6 weeks now (the manufacturer says to change the batteries every 3-4 months), so I personally won't be buying Varta's anymore (and yes, they're the alkaline ones).
How about these Utilitech batteries at $19 for 100. Shipping at $8.95. (19c per battery pick up, 27c delivered)

CPF says they are good, and the price is even lower than Lowes, the US partner of masters.http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?327474-Ne…
Thanks mate, Just purchased 1 AA and 1 AAA.
very impressive deal considering use by is Mar 201940 pack!.. works out at $0.42 a battery. Cant beat that price.
Supremely high price per charge, bro.
You really need to look into rechargeables, I reckon.The problem I used to have with rechargeables (NiMH) a few years ago was that if you charged them in advance, they didn't have much of a shelf life, so weren't in good condition when you needed them. So I went back to alkalines (not that I use a lot anyway). Are the rechargeables better these days?
Are the rechargeables better these days?
Absolutely. Look into the eneloop batteries.
I posted a deal a short time ago from some selling on Amazon.Thanks. I'd noticed the Eneloops seemed pretty popular here. I might give them a go.
Just make sure you use them in a reasonable timeframe.
I had 20 packs of Duracells I'd left in the garage for about a year under normal temperatures, and when I came back to them the electrolyte fluid had leaked out of many of them and even crystallised into a sand-like powder.
Don't snort the powder.
I bought a pack of the 40 duracells a few months ago from Bunnings ( the ones with the chinese writing on them ) thinking this is good value.. but after using them found out that the majority leaked and like the comment above.
I have found this to be true with other people who have used them too.
I normally use it my wireless keyboard, mouse
I don't know if they cause harm ( potentially )to your devices
Never will I buy them again.. the duracell name for me has gone down the dunny, shame as there was an era where they were considered one the best.
Sweet, it's an eBay deal, I'm going to earn some Velocity points too! https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/142936
Thank You Cheewy, Good deal no postage cost I have bought a pack.
Thanks Chewwy, good on you mate! Bought a couple of packs. Had Varta which didn't last as expected of alkaline. They also damaged two of my LED torchlights.
Wow all those dead comments above me.
Also Eneloops > Alkaline
