    Good deal but I would feel bad if I used that many batteries. :p

    • stumo on 20/09/2010 - 20:56

      Depends what you're using them in I guess.

      What if it was for something that made you feel good?

      • Lenneth on 20/09/2010 - 23:33

        I would still feel bad. so, so bad I would ground myself in my room for a couple of hours.

            @Cripto: naughty for not getting enough duracell's? 40 may not be enough

          • Lenneth on 21/09/2010 - 19:18

            @Cripto: I'm pretty sure I'm not a 'he'. But what mischief I could have if I was…:)

          You could even use your tears as lubrication.

        • Benmc on 21/09/2010 - 20:20

          Grounding yourself in your room would only make you more likely to use the batteries in the product to make you feel better.

  • aussman on 20/09/2010 - 20:54

    i'v got more battereies than I can use from previous coles and safeway deals

    Coles have Energizer Max AA on sale, 2 for 1. $26.38 for 4 packs.
    http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/31254
    Not sure how Energizer Max compare to Duracell though.

    AAA are a good deal.

      • neil on 20/09/2010 - 22:21

        Anyone ever done a comparison review on batteries? Can't find any online.

        • StewBalls on 20/09/2010 - 23:21

          I can find a few fairly basic noncommittal ones; but nothing I would really call scientific or reputable! The ones I've seen say the two are virtually identical in performance; however a couple infer the Duracells just edge out the Energizers in some applications! I'd take this with a hypertensive-grade grain of salt though! ;)

          I've always had a better run out of Duracells myself, and been unfortunate enough to have a couple of Energizers leak on me; whereas others have reported the opposite! I officially give up; I'll just use what's cheapest and most convenient at the time! ;)

          FWIW, just google "Energizer vs Duracell" for references to these groundbreaking studies! :)

      Super Heavy Duty are nowhere near the power of alkalines. Completely different batteries.

    These are cheap chinese import crap… still a very good price… I think
    I might be able to get ABC brand alkaline batteries cheaper than this price at Cash & Carry
    here in WA.

    • Cluster on 21/09/2010 - 01:36

      All the Duracell AA and AAA batteries I have seen sold in Australia are made in China. They were 'Made in EU' several years ago (read: cheapest European country they could find).

    Unless you need a large amount of batteries, I would "invest" in rechargables, my ps3 remote/tv remote and xbox 360 controller all benefit from a rough $40 something cost

    • thefunkygibbon on 21/09/2010 - 01:18

      Yup I agree. There are still applications where non-rechargeables are recommended but for everything else get low discharge rechargeables and a good charger (I like my PowerEx maha MH-c9000 Wizard One).

    • [Deactivated] on 21/09/2010 - 11:10

      Seconded.

      Plus, think of it:
      These batteriess would last till 2016.
      THAT'S 4 YEARS TOO LONG!

      • lazed on 21/09/2010 - 19:53

    HN sale 12 AA alkaline batteries for only $3 last weekend.

  • cwongtech on 21/09/2010 - 10:47

    Nah, get energizer lithium from eBay, they go for around 1.10 per battery but last much much longer.
    Never using alkaline again.
    Comparison: my old 4mp Olympus digital camera used up half the juice of 2 normal energizer max batteries in 10 minutes, 20 minutes and you needed to swap batteries, with energizer lithium, I was able to get two full days (about 3 hours of hardcore usage) before the half battery indicator started flashing.
    Seriously, alkaline batteries can go eff themselves.
    Not a bad deal… But could be MUCH better.
    How do I know my lithium batteries from eBay aren't pieces of crap?
    1. They're much lighter than normal alkaline batteries, which they should be as I have been suckered into buying some from woolies before.
    2. Using them with my logitech m950 mouse, a few weeks have gone by without a drop in the battery usage indicator, hardcore usage too. With the supplied enitime 2000mah nimh battery, it usually drops down to two bars after 3 days of heavy usage, hence I know that the batteries I got are doing their job :)

    • ronnknee on 21/09/2010 - 11:22

      3 days on the mouse sounds so little.

      Alternatively, go for space-rated batteries that last you up to 20 years! I know this because I had to research it last night for an assignment =P

      • cwongtech on 21/09/2010 - 14:13

        Well it's ONE aa battery not two in this uber mouse, it also lasts up to a week with heavy usage then it goes on 1 out of 3 bars on the indicator.
        Logitech never claimed the mouse to have a 3 year battery life span, they also give you a charger for the mouse itself to charge the supplied battery.
        I personally got the lithium batteries cause I knew they would last for a while, I'm lazy and can't be bothered to recharge as well as the included NiMH battery weighing the mouse down.

    • annoynimous on 21/09/2010 - 16:32

      crazy, i wouldnt bother importing lithium batts from hk/china, most probably fakies lmao

      • cwongtech on 21/09/2010 - 19:04

        I don't get how you can fake the charge or weight in a battery, also, most of the batteries sold here are made in china anyway..

        • Benmc on 21/09/2010 - 22:16

          They put sand in them supposedly. lol.

          • cwongtech on 22/09/2010 - 01:12

            @Benmc: Dude, sand is HEAVY, when you use a battery and notice it lasts longer.. that's another indicator that your battery isn't fake.
            How are you supposed to fake lithium batteries when they're much lighter than normal alkaline?

  • abacus on 21/09/2010 - 19:48

    Buy rechargeables.
