price of AAA alkaline
Why are AAA alkaline batteries as expensive as AA, per battery? I've
gotten AA as low as 20 cents a piece, but I don't need AA. I need AAA and shouldn't they be cheaper since they're smaller. Do people with little hands get paid more? |

Well, I'm not buying anymore until the volume goes up and the price goes down. That'll show 'em. |

Do people with little hands get paid more? Actually they are generally MORE expensive - perhaps because they sell fewer of them?? |

I would have expected them to cost the same since the cost of materials is a very minor factor in the retail price. AAAA are far more expensive than either, but those are manufactured in relatively low quantities. I only have one device that uses them. |

Per Paul:
Eneloops are pretty awesome. FWIW, never seen an Eneloop leak and destroy a device. As opposed to DuraCells, which I have had leak in several of my devices. Now that Eneloop has resolved the self-discharge issue it would seem that, for most applications, Eneloops are better than alkalines. -- Pete Cresswell |

After a hurricane passed through I was with a neighbor who went to the Walgreen's looking for a portable radio. The only one they had left used C cells, which they were out of. CY: I was careful to buy one flash light on C cells (four cell mag) because often the C cells are the last ones to be found in stores. Bummer about your experience.

Most flashlights like that use 3 AAA cells. Does that one? CY: Yes, both the short lights and the magnet ones take three AAA cells.
