I order batteries from "http://www.batteryjunction.com/" and they have
Eneloop, Panasonic Evolta and Tenergy Centura. They don't have Maha

Some people think the cheep alkaline batteries I buy are for the birds
but those inexpensive batteries always work for me because I'm cheap. ^_^

TDD


They're still probably cost effective, but I've had several different
alkalines leak on me in the past year, I'm done with them!


The trick with alkalines is to replace them before they're dead. Cheap
alkalines are the way to go but if you're going to leave them
installed until they leak, get bunnies or copper ones. They'll
replace the widget. ...or so I'm told. I use the $.20 variety from
the Borg.
