Anybody who goes through a 200-pack of AA batteries before they leak really ought to consider switching to rechargeables.

The problem with NiMH rechargeable batteries is that they are 1.2V not 1.5v like alkaline batteries. Certain devices, particularly those that operate at radio frequencies, will not indicate a full charge with 1.2V NiMH batteries. Lithium batteries do operate at 1.5V, but they are generally much more expensive—at least the ones made in Japan/Korea that have decent mAH capacity.

I typically buy in bulk and distribute amongst friends. This is quite cheap but the yellow ones I got have longer life.

Our medical equipment requires the higher voltage of an alkaline. It's obnoxious.

Not at these prices Big Grin

Amen! I have a bunch of rechargeable batteries but I'll stick with alkaline for the toys, They go through them like water. I would be constantly removing batteries from toy, put them on charger, remove from charger, store the fresh batteries and separated from the used one, it's a huge hassle. Ain't nobody got time for that! Anything below 30 cents per alkaline battery is a deal, this is 16 cents per.

Rechargable and alkaline batteries can have different applications.

I was thinking the same thing but you dropped some extra knowledge. Yeah I have some battery testers and I was always curious why my 1.2v rechargable batteries were showing basically 50% charged at full charge compared to a 1.5v. That makes sense. I wonder if I can get battery tester designed for 1.2v. But for my Xbox controller and other remote controls the 1.2v is perfect. But I can imagine there's other applications the 1.5v is necessary
