[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 486605, member: 21536"] I have not bought or used Amazon basics AA/AAA batteries. But I'll offer an opinion anyway :) I use the name brand AA/AAA batts from Costco or SAM's. I'm also pretty happy with Kirkland brand (Costco). I think Costco does a pretty good job vetting things before they put their name on them. Unfortunately, unless I missed it, the test video didn't include Kirkland brand. My perception is that the no-name batteries have a tendency to leak more than the name brand ones. I have a bias against Amazon basics. Like what I see on the web site in general, I think they probably use the cheapest stuff they can get from SE Asia. Just a perception, not based on anything factual other than what is pushed on the web site. [/QUOTE]
