I buy them all the time for Grace's toys. Haven't had a bad one yet
that I know of. I also buy the C-cells for my power pack at Costco.
They seem fine as well. Perhaps I'll check them all with a voltmeter
next time. Maybe I'm blissfully ignorant:-).

bought a pack of something around 20
AA batteries. I wound up throwing away about 8 of them right out of
the box as they were dead. I believe they came from China.

John,
Cop a Crop of Copper Tops. We did as the family started needing
juice for toys.

Anyone available to answer an alliteratively quaint and quick
question?
Well, I was wondering what's the best battery to buy for frequent-
flash
photography. The bullshit batteries I bought for last weekend's white
wedding were obviously obsolete for that oddysey of outbusts.
Alkalines are available all around, yet vary in their veracity and
voltage
volume. Lithiums last a lot longer, but buying them by the bag begets
broke-ness. Rechargeables require regular monotonous mainenance and
more
money at the moment of purchase, but procurement provides a pre-
existing
power population in your pocket that pooh-poohs spurious
substitution by
shoddy successors.
Recycle rates, really, are the reason I ask about all this. My Pentax
AF540FGZ needs a new and nubile change in the charge-chamber.
Previous
performance pooped out posthaste, posing a problem.
Suggestions?
Silly salutations,
John
