There's actually a reason for this. It's because the ambient temperature tends to dip at night. Battery voltage is affected by temperature (through its internal resistance). Ri seems to rise with lower temperature, resulting in less applied voltage to the circuit.

So when your battery is wearing out and near the trip limit for the low voltage warning, the low temperature at night can push it below it and you get rudely awakened due to... science!

I bought the Voniko brand previously but am not happy with it. they don't seem to last as long as the name brands like Duracell.

that's odd, voniko was very high rated by the project farm youtube channel, and he is the ultimate tester. btw, $7.37 is the average camelcamel price on this. not really slick, imo.

Same in Duracell would be 100% more expensive ......can you speak to the Duracell lasting more than twice as long 🤔

Useful to know - how much less than Duracell? How do they compare to other off brands?

I tried this brand for the first time 8 months ago when I needed some 9V ones for my smoke detectors. They've been great for the price and are still going. If they last a year I'll consider them equal in capacity to the premium brands for that application, or at least plenty good enough.

Edit: Why do smoke detectors always seem to decide to start the low battery chirp at 3 in the morning?

Bought these a few months ago. Working just fine in everything that I might need non-rechargeable cells for these days. Remote controls, wireless temp sensors, kitchen scale, etc.

If I were running devices that for some reason needed the longevity that a brand-name like Duracell/Energizer offers, I would buy a brand name. But I also wouldn't get anywhere near 24 of them for under 7 bucks.

He's the master. Takes no freebies, sponsorships, or advertising. His tests have furthered my education on a lot of things, especially Chinese knockoffs and house brands like Amazon Basics. I don't think there's a more impartial or unbiased product tester out there.

I won't use alkaline batteries again, too many devices were damaged by their juices. Rechargeable batteries are way better and cheaper.

They don't last long. ACDelco is cheap as well, but lasts longer.

Great answer, although I thought that in a climate controlled space it wouldn't matter. It seems to happen in the wee hours every single time, so that's the only logical explanation.

A related factor may be that they're ceiling mounted, and thus more subject to daily attic hot/cool cycles due to proximity. I would guess that the temperature an inch or two from my ceiling would be warmer during the day, and at a low point sometime before sunrise.
