Battle of the batteries!

Contributor: Sir Sir
I honestly cannot say because I do not pay attention to brand or difference between how long they last.

It's hard to gauge how long batteries last. I have considered writing the date on mine, so I know how long they will last in regular use & recharge mode.

We've used both energizers and some rechargeables...but need to get some more of those as they've seemed to become misplaced!

My toys are like the energizer bunny they keep going and going. I use whatever is on sell and whatever I have coupons for... LOL

I've sort of sworn off battery powered toys since I feel so unlucky about batteries dying or not having a charged set ready to go but I have found myself paying a few cents more just for the Duracell "look".

I have mostly Sony NiMH rechargeable batteries, a few Energizer recharchables. I probably have under 10 in all and they all serve me very well. I'm so very happy I switched to rechargeables.

Looks mostly like Rayovacs for me. Some Energizers, some Duracells, but I mostly seem to end up grabbing Rayovacs.

I love Energizer for both disposables and rechargeables. I'm trying to stock up on more of the rechargables, but it's hard to when they're so expensive and the regular ones are on sale!

thats also what i use, the only problem is that they are thicker then normal batteries and are usually a really tight fit in some toys, or don't fit at all.

Everyone loves Eneloops! I guess I'll have to try them..

So far I've found rechargeable energizers have suited my needs best.

Same here! The CVS on my college campus often has some batteries on sale for buy one get one and they work just fine so I buy those a lot. (On my Campus Cash card, where my financial aid goes. Yes, the people's tax dollars are going to powering my sex toys! Then again, plenty of my own money goes toward school stuff so it all evens out.)

My only problem is that I forget where I've used them, and have to look in different electronics to find them. I really just need to buy more of them

My new favorite are the Duracell Advanced. These babies have 30% more power! They really make a difference. The only problem is I buy AAs and AAAs in packages of, like, 16 or 20 and you can only get the Advanced in packages of 3 or 4.

Duracell Advanced

I'm thinking of emailing Duracell, and letting them know some of us need these in larger quantities.

Oh, and I asked My Man again, why rechargables have a lower output of power and he explained to me again, and I forgot....again. He's the Engineer.... But, they do have a slightly lower power output, and he did say that in the type of motor most vibrators have, it makes a difference, and we did a side by side test with new regular batteries and fully charged rechargables, and at least in Fun Factory and JoyDivision Toys there WAS a noticeable difference in strength.

Maybe not politically correct, to prefer the disposable batteries, but we found the rechargeable really not as strong.

Sam's clubs "store brand" is made by Energizer, so it's not cheap on life span, but a nice deal. That and you have so many that there's never a worry of running out quickly.

I use Eneloops in everything except my Rosebud, and so far I've only used Energizers in that one, because that's what I happened to buy. Duracell made my otherwise silent JimmyJane Little Steel rattle -- they must be the slightest bit thinner than the Eneloops.

Rayovac rechargeables. Lasted me 2+ years per pack and keeps my toys happy to see me.

Hmm, good to know, maybe I'll check those out. I usually just use Panasonic, which are from the dollar store and they seem to last just fine, but maybe I'll check out the Sam's Club ones.

Yeah, I didn't vote because rechargables were not on the list. my energizer rechargables have been going strong for years now.
