  • Voniko AA batteries cost me only $0.19 each for a 100 qty. Are they on par with Amazon Basics AA batteries? It would be nice to pay 0.08 less for the same performance.

    So funny you did this video. I literally just bought some Voniko batteries that shield be delivered tomorrow. Anxious to see how they compare to Rayovac and Harbor Freight batteries. Lately I've been using lithium rechargeable AA and AAA with USB C port built-in and while good, most didn't hold the same capacity as even NiMh rechargeables let alone alkalines. But the bonus is they deliver a true 1.5V unlike the 1.2V of NiCd or NiMh batteries. Most of those lithium batteries are rated in mWh instead of the typical mAh, so you have to take the mWh capacity and divide by the voltage of 1.5V for the mAh capacity.

      Any properly designed device will work properly down to 0.8v unless it is high current, which would be more like .9 to 1
      Alkaline batteries are only 1.5 when right out of the box. 1.2 is about the half way mark between full and depleted.

      I agree on the rechargeable 1.5v lithium. The only places I've found where they don't work well for me are radios and some remotes. The circuitry inside each cell generates too much electrical and radio noise. I've several devices that while they work on NiMh rechargeables, they kill the cells because they will operate correctly down to the point one or more cells goes reverse. One time doing that and the NiMh cell loses significant capacity. After 2 or 3 times being reversed it isn't worth using any longer.

    The open circuit voltage on a brand alkaline battery tells you NOTHING about how much energy you can get out of the battery or even what the state of charge is. They ALL tend to run a bit high when brand new in an open circuit measurement. But the second you put a load on it, it will be 1.5
    The ONLY thing you can go by with respect to your devices is to simply see how long it powers your device. Batteries will perform radically different in different operations.

    Per your Amazon link, the Voniko batteries are $.21, not $.19, and that is with a temporary sale. There are other AA brands on Amazon that are $.19, but not this brand.

      Prices change regularly. I’ve seen them as low as 0.17 per cell with a high enough quantity

      Amazon prices fluctuate like crazy. I purchased an item, then went back the next day to get another and the price had gone up 55%. I'm not sure how the pricing works, but keep an eye on price changes as they happen daily.

    Soooo, have you tried rechargeable AA batteries? If so, thoughts?

    • @kev-reviews
      @kev-reviews  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not for my decorations. I would have to have too many chargers. It would be a battle to keep up with the demand

      @@kev-reviewsI'm about to purchase their rechargeable batteries and test them. I'll see how it goes and report back once I know how they're doing.

    I put 9v dollar tree batteries in my enemies smoke detectors.

    That meter is completely worthless. Worse than worthless. The voltage of a cell that isn't under load is completely worthless. Dead batteries will check as good. Harbor freight sells a multi-meter for 8 bucks that includes a battery checker that puts a load on the battery.

    • @kev-reviews
      @kev-reviews  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I disagree. I got some new and old batteries mixed up and was easily able to tell which were the old batteries using that “completely worthless” meter.

    Why don't you try to start buying re-chargeable batteries & try to lower Your Environmental impact / Batteries thrown in the trash.
    Try to Buy stuff that's Re-Chargeable also. instead of All ways loading batteries into devices.
    Example:
    1) Only Buy rechargeable Flashlights. Something i've found Works out Very well.
    Good video. 😎🛶

      Thanks. Rechargeables won’t work for my Holiday lighting demands. It would take too many chargers and constant rotation….not to mention the costs
