Best batteries, best price !!!
July 12, 2017
I love the brand Duracell !! And what other place to but these batteries than Amazon !!! I compared the prices at other stores and Amazon price was almost 30% less than the cheapest one.I have these batteries in AA, AAA, 9V and multiple other formats. The batteries retain the current for longer times and last longer when used.
Duracell Batteries That You Can Trust
June 12, 2017
Very good battery for the cost. Had no issue with them working and lasted a long time for my flashlight and battery operated digital scale for cats and dogs. The batteries came as expected - shipped in good packaging and came a day early. Highly recommend.
Comforting to Have
April 8, 2017
The batteries arrived fresh and in perfect condition.I purchased these for use in lanterns in case of power failure. They lit up brightly and I feel better now that I have reliable back-up lights.They replaced batteries from a less reliable manufacturer. Spend a tiny bit more to get a LOT more performance.
Finally I figured I'd just spend the money on a box of the good stuff and not have to look back
April 4, 2017
I had been using rechargeables for years and got frustrated with how they slowly discharge. Then I started using the cheap Chinese stuff sold at HF for awhile and got frustrated with their short lifespan. Finally I figured I'd just spend the money on a box of the good stuff and not have to look back. I'm glad I did!
No problems, great batteries
September 5, 2016
Ordered from Super Medical Supply as seller and batteries are working perfectly in flashlight. Ordered Sept 2016 and expiration date on batteries was March 2022. Great price and seller.
Good batteries
August 21, 2014
I used them in a game camera in my barn to watch for predators after my chickens. I wouldn't get out to the barn too early in the morning and when the chickens got up early they would set off the game camera every minute or so (camera had a flash for each picture). The camera would end up with hundreds of pictures every morning this way, and the batteries really lasted. I would say they were a pretty good battery to hold out as well as they did. Not sure how they compare with other batteries, but they did the job here.

Good price for lots of batteries

I've used these several times and like them a lot. Great price for all the batteries we use for feeder lights while hog hunting.

Seems to work as good as local store purchased batteries.
these two boxes came unopened but on my previous order ...
April 29, 2017
these two boxes came unopened but on my previous order I recieved came in a box with 4 batteries loose in box. packages are usuly sealed in plastic. the 4 loose batteries were not of full charge. tested with a volt meter were only 1.49v . I reported on last survey about this problem.
Quality batteries at a good price
April 9, 2017
Good quality batteries. I will order them again when I need to.
Just as advertised and at a good price

Just what I ordered at a good price What more can you say about batteries, for Heavens sake.
Seem to be better than 'normal' batteries
December 2, 2014
Seems to have a longer life than 'normal' batteries. I can never really tell any difference between the name-brand batteries (I never buy no-name brand batteries...they just don't last) but these seem to last a bit longer than normal batteries. Since they were a comparable price to the normal name-brand batteries I gave them a shot. As long as they are price-competitive the 'normal' batteries I'll keep buying them.

Just OK
March 20, 2017
I guess I can't expect these to last like Energizers, so it's just OK

I guess they are okay, my box came with missing batteries though, had to return.
Not Done Trying Them!
March 10, 2017
Don't know if it's these batteries OR the Victor Rat Zapper that's not working! Kinda doubt the batteries are bad but I want to be right. Will re- review when I know.
Good batteries if they work, very bad if they are faulty..
September 23, 2015
I ordered, 2 12 packs of this and for some reason i got 4 packs of 12... i found it weird and not sure if it was my mistake of theirs.. so i was pleased with them at the bigening as i feel i burn them since my two twin girls swing sets use 4 each.. everything was running good, i say lasted about 2 weeks. And trust me, they got used alot. anyways, on my third pack of batteries, i noticed the batteries where lasting about 2-3 days... replaced them again and same deal the batteries lasted 2-3 days again.. i was going mad and even went as far as purchasing another swing thinking the swing was the problem. added 4 more batteries from the same pack with the same results... also put in the other batteries from the old swing to make sure they where not the issue. well they where the issue. i say, almost 2 of the four packs where very bad batch of batteries.I contact Duracell and after getting trying to explain my situation which was not easy. i ended getting a voucher for more batteries.. To this day i haven't used that voucher since i have only seen this batteries on Amazon.
great price
February 17, 2015
the batteries were great. the price was great. everything was perfect. i only rated this a 3 star instead of 5 because i was only sent 8 batteries and i had to haggle with amazon a bit to get a 33% refund since i paid for 12. but i'm assuming this doesn't happen often and even still after my 33% refund this price was amazingly cheap. provided i actually get 12 next time i would love to order this again as its the cheapest i've found anywhere.
These did not last!!!!
December 23, 2013
It is just new packaging. These barely got through December! It is a good thing I did not put up my Christmas decorations right after Thanksgiving like I usually do. I put these up December 8th and they were already dim with-in three weeks! I went the the dollar store and got some no name batteries and they lasted from January 8th to now and they still look bright! Duracell really needs to think more about the customer because I will by batteries elsewhere and even Amazon will lose out too.I don't like putting up bad reviews. I know how hard it is to put out a good product all the time but in this economy people have to be careful about how and where they will buy products. Not everyone can afford the costs of batteries every new holiday or even monthly just because they feel better when the candles are lit....

Lasted a month and died.
October 17, 2017
I used these batteries in my gun safe and after only light use (I only accessed my safe a handful of times) over the course of a month they went dead. That's probably the worst I've ever seen a battery last. I was expecting higher quality since these were Duracell, which I've never had a problem with. Either the batteries that were sent to me were old and outdated or I got a bad batch I'm guessing. Regardless, I'll buy a different type of Duracell next time not the Procell in case that was the issue.

They aren't long lasting
Not so good
November 13, 2015
I bought a pack of these batteries to use in a cassett and CD player. The CD player would not play and after calling tech support they told me that a Cd takes more energy then a radio or cassett. They asked me to try to use the CD with the plug in. Well it worked so I have to assume that these batteries have been laying around for some time. They were weak. This is only my assumption but what else could it be?
reliable..not all of them.
July 3, 2014
most of the batteries were good but a few in one of the boxes were bad. I'll be curious to see how long they last.

1 battery dead
July 2, 2017
1 of the 12 batteries was dead as a hammer. I guess it was just a factory defect. Other time I ordered they were all ok
Don't waste your time!
June 18, 2017
I received a pack of dead batteries with a Mar 2023 expiration date stamped on each. If one sums this up with the customer reviews on Duracell website, they might conclude that the company seems to stop delivering the best quality when it comes to batteries. I've been a Duracell fan for years and this time their product was a huge disappointment. As I needed the batteries ASAP, I just went to a local home improvement store and purchased a 6-pack of the store branded North Tech C alkaline batteries for a comparable price. Don't waste your time waiting for the batteries and refunds!
Waste of money
June 13, 2017
The quality of these is poor. Maybe they're repackaged old batteries, or not authentic. Some of the batteries didn't work at all, others barely lasted two weeks in candles with 4 hour timers.

batteries were dead on delivery and amazon doesnt replace
Lasts 1/4 the time of Duracells
December 1, 2014
Voltage drops rapidly. Lasts 1 week in an application in which Duracells last 1 month.
dont buy!
December 21, 2013
Batteries were dead when I recieved them. Don't buy them, save yourself and just pick them up from the local walmart.
