Batteries what kind do you use?

If you are open to the use of rechargeable for AA or AAA Eneloops are fantastic. I have some that are 6-7 years old and still perform flawlessly.

I use these, but I am sometimes disappointed in the performance of the battery-powered device due to the 20% voltage drop (1.2v vs. 1.5v per cell). However, they do last a long time (high amp hours and hundreds of recharges), they don’t leak and are great for led flashlights.

Since I became a Costco member I started using their batteries exclusively. They seem to perform as well as the named brands and cost less.
