I have become partial to AA alkaline over Li for infrequently-used

Yes, Li offers exceptional shelf life.... but alkalines have a shelf
life of something like 5 years.

I use alkaline for clocks and thermostats as they're dirt cheap. I use
Li Ion (or NiMH if I have to for voltage) for everything else.


Ah, clocks. I have several clocks at home. And
about 25 or 30 clocks at the church building. My
part of USA does daylight saving time, so we change
clocks two times a year. I give each of the clocks
a new alkaline AA cell each time change. Wrist watch
gets new CR-2016 cell, when the display goes blank.
