[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3183261, member: 29706"] More than likely you will learn an interesting way to test AA batteries and learn if they are new or old within the first two minutes. There is also some extensive testing to decide if one brand is really better than another. [CENTER][MEDIA=youtube]V7-ghrTqA44[/MEDIA] [/CENTER] It's interesting how long they can last. I have to disagree with the Amazon basics being the best buy in some ways though. They are cheaper than a lot of the ones you can buy at the store but not too long ago I was able to get a 60 pack of rayovac's for 15 bucks plus tax or about 27.25 cents per (in the store a 48 pack is 20.00 so it pays to shop online) vs 30.17 cents per for the Amazon batteries in a 48 pack. Otherwise it's a lot of interesting information though I would expect a little more extensive testing to be done as it seemed that the same brand had some varying results and a small sample size does not take that into account. And now grandparents know which battery to buy to help the grand kids drive mom and dad crazy.... Or the parents to know which ones to get so the toy dies sooner. Then again torturing the grandparents with some lithium batteries could be in the cards at some point as well I am sure, LOL. [/QUOTE]
