Round-Up AA and AAA Cells (2022): Results and Analysis
- cleansingfire 4y agoI'd like to see these now rated for leakage by monitoring, maybe even shorting half the sample. As far as I can tell, all cells now leak, while before it was some cells and aggravated with constant discharge. Edit: Because I would like to know if I can trust any (other than rechargeable or perhaps Li) cells not to destroy my toys.
- jcynix 4y agoEneloops don't leak and are my choice, even for clocks or remote controls. Using them for many years now, without leakage.
- unloco 4y agoNot so sure about that amazon basics ranking. Pretty sure they are the same thing as a normal Duracell
- addaon 4y agoI've noticed more and more devices specifying specific batteries -- e.g. my Spot tracker specifies Energizer L92s -- and it just makes sense that with these AA and AAA primary lithiums out there devices are taking advantage of them. Their open-circuit and under-load voltage is noticeably higher than an alkaline battery -- which is a nice efficiency improvement if you're boosting from one or two cells up to 5V -- and their leakage characteristics are in a different class.
