Quality AA batteries that were tested by me and found above rated specifications A+
Quality alkaline AA batteries at a good price. You know we're always being bombarded by TV and other advertising at how great small batteries can be. I decided that it would be fun to put them to the test. I used a Fluke digital multimeter which I calibrated using a D.C. precision regulated power supply which was checked on a Tektronix scope for accuracy. Out of the box fresh I measured 4 different brands of AA cells first with no load just using the Fluke Multimeter. First the Delcos measured 1.63 volts without a load and 1.54 with a flashlight bulb load. Excellent way above rated specifications. The Duracell and energizer were almost as good measuring 1.53 under load, again very good. The Batteries from BJ's didn't do as well only measuring 1,.4 under load and 1.5 with no load. Conclusion: The AC DElco AA batteries performed as good as the much more expensive Duracell and energizer batteries and are well worth buying. This applies if you use a lot of these guy's for remote controls or other small electric battery powered devices. Well worth the money and highly recommended as indicated by a usage test with accurate equipment.
