Duracell Aaa24 Procell Professional Alkaline Battery AAA24PROCELL)

Short Answer: Great value. Long life. Fresh batteries. Detailed Answer: I was weary to order batteries in bulk here. I am very glad that I did. These are amazing cells. They last longer in my cordless mouse than the ones I was using before, which were a pretty good brand, I thought. The Procells have incredible lasting power in low-drain electronics (like the mouse, or an LED flashlight.) For high-drain applications such as a digital camera, you will of course, be better off with Lithium cells, but it would still be difficult to beat these batteries when factoring in the price. They are definitely the exact same Duracell Procell batteries that you can pay 2 or 3 times as much for elsewhere. Now I just buy all my batteries on Amazon, because all other common sizes are also available.

Bought these because I needed some AAA batteries for a good price that I could still get prime shipping on. I had originally planned on getting the Amazon Basics brand, but they are now all add-on items and I didn't want to spend $25 just to get them. Found these that still qualified for prime and came in a larger pack for nearly the same price. I've used 4 so far and none have died on me. For remotes and things like that, these are hard to beat. I'll definitely be ordering more!

I'm happy to discover these batteries packaged in a very tidy box with the AAA batteries in smaller boxes of four-each. Whenever we need more batteries, there is no mess in the battery drawer, no impossible plastic to get through, and the small 4-packs are very handy for storing with the camera bags, toy cases, etc. that need frequent changes. I hope to find the same type of package for AA's which we use even more often. Who knew such a simple thing as packaging could bring such a happy experience! Besides that, the batteries have been very reliable and long-lasting. Great product!

These cells work well in quartz table clocks and LED beacons we use on dog collars. The "professional" distinction seems to have mostly to do with the packaging. It's not blister pack, and that seems to allow a price advantage when buying in bulk. Duracell has changed the colors and logo of its "ProCell" line of batteries, so you can distinguish old stock from newer cells. The latest is a predominantly orange container/box with a black stripe that includes the ProCell logo. Curiously, the Duracell brand has a very small typeface and is nearly invisible in the new markings. I was concerned at first that I had gotten a bogus knock-off. The older markings are a predominantly black container/box with a red stripe on an end. For years I've been impressed at the consistent performance of this brand, both in duration and in quality control. Other brands that I've tried have suffered dead or weak cells right out of the box. (Energizer "Industrial" and Ray-O-Vac) The alkaline chemistry delivers a consistent voltage at a given load, but I've seen cells of all brands leak if they go through an extended freeze, such as wintertime and the car's flashlight stored in the back seat. Depending on the device you're powering, do some research into alternative chemistries that include lithium, sealed lead-acid, and rechargeable cells. Curiously, these "AAA" cells are made in Thailand. Late model Duracells in "D" and "9V" are still made in the U.S.A. Some years ago I had some Duracells that were made in China. I never did any testing to see if there were any differences in power. Duracell, as a corporate unit, is being sold by parent Procter & Gamble. Time will tell whether the buyer, and investment company, will preserve the quality of the product.

I prefer Duracell Procell batteries over any other battery due to noticeably longer life to cost ratio in my flashlights and headlamps. I have to be able to depend on my lights working when I need them to. I purchased the 24 "AAA" batteries for $9.84. That works out to .41 cents battery. My local Walmart price is is $9.97 plus 8% tax for 16 "AAA" batteries, or about .67 cents per battery for the regular Duracell Coppertops. All 24 batteries I received had expiration dates of March 2019.... or 4+ years of shelf life. Thanks to Medical Products Depot for fresh product!Thank you for reading.

I haven't used up any of the batteries yet - they seem like ordinary alkaline batteries. What sets these apart is the packaging. The product image shown when I bought it concerned me - it says "4xAAA" but looks way too big for that and the description (and price) said 24 batteries. It turns out the picture is larger than life size - it should be the size of 4 AAA batteries standing side by side. You get 6 paperboard boxes just like the one shown in the picture, all pancaked together in a larger paperboard box measuring 3" x 2" x 1.75". There is no wasted space, no plastic, no cellophane, etc. The packaging wouldn't be good for keeping in a wet location, but it's perfect for keeping a stock of batteries in a drawer. You can easily grab a pack of 4 batteries when you need to use them, or grab a few 4-packs to throw in a bag for a trip. The packaging is easy to open and close. I'm not sure if this is in Amazon's Frustration-Free Packaging program ( [...] ), but it is worthy of that. I wish more products would have such simple, useful packaging.

About one third of these were on there last usable cell. I have a battery tester. I always test batteries before putting them into my devices. The red flashing light on my tester was a shock. No one expects to get dead batteries when opening a new box.
