    Sorry my eneloops wont approve.. dont want to hurt their feelings…

    • [Deactivated] on 21/01/2017 - 08:17

      I think they would feel betrayed.

  • ireadtermsofuse on 20/01/2017 - 23:39

    Shows the sales of these batteries were performing well

    Thanks OP but none of these are alkaline. I'm surprised it is still legal to make them.

      Why would it be illegal to make them? Are you thinking of the old style rechargeable cells that have Cadmium?

      • PJC on 21/01/2017 - 11:24

        No. These end up in the bin quicker than any other battery. Alkaline end up there too, obviously, but they last longer.

          They have their place in low-drain applications. Their volume in landfill is only one part of the total impact.

        • werty98 on 21/01/2017 - 16:57

          @octagonalman: You should take in account the volume of those low-drain applications ending up in landfill because of battery leak as well.

        • octagonalman on 21/01/2017 - 22:42

          @werty98:

          Yes, good point. The site below claims that "Alkalines leak more frequently than any other kind of battery."

    used them in my inflatable mattress that takes 4D cells, works fine saved my paying what $5 each for them elsewhere. Bought these when they were $2!! I feel gipped.

    Carbon zinc are pretty rubbish but for D cell or lantern battery that would be ok.

    Do not use the 9v for smoke alarms though.

  • zealmax on 21/01/2017 - 00:14

    It didnt work well in my smoke alarms. Mist of picked up a bad batch.

    • CVonC on 21/01/2017 - 00:57

      The entire batch is bad.

    DO NOT use these for smoke alarms. Don't risk your life with a cheap battery!

    • PJC on 21/01/2017 - 10:45

      Absolutely correct.

  • SuiCid3 on 21/01/2017 - 07:50

    Great for kids toys.

      Well sure. If it's an annoying kids toy you want to ruin with a battery that leaks. Those ones that make annoying noises maybe?

  • sween64 on 21/01/2017 - 12:51

    6 pack

  • bwatt72 on 23/01/2017 - 16:23

    Are these on clearance in all stores nationwide?

    • CVonC on 23/01/2017 - 17:44

      Yep

  • octagonalman on 28/01/2017 - 17:08

    The lantern batteries (GE4R25) are good for hobby stuff. Easy to get the alligator clips around the spring terminals and not having to worry about low battery protection. There's about 10 left (two-packs) at Chadstone, VIC with a claimed best before of 12/2019.

  • Zachary on 29/01/2017 - 15:53

    Damn…if only they were them rechargeable Ni-Mh ones…… :P
