molan Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Just realised I've run out of 9v batteries. Anyone got any recommendations on which ones are best? Don't want rechargeable ones though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markstuk Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Duracell Procell PP3's have a pretty good price/performance ratio.. Should be able to pick up a 10 pack for a tenner on evilbay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I use Duracell in the bass. and I get at least 150 gigs out of 1 battery. I'd use transformers on pedals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I used to get a year's worth of gigs out of an Energiser - at the time it was around 70 plus practices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFX83 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Used to use Durexell, but found that Energiszers are better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Anybody ever used the DURACELL PROCELL AA batteries? We use a fair few batteries (digi cameras, camera flashes etc), rechargeables tend to be pants and I wondered how these compare as I've not encountered them!

goblin Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Yeah definitely a good seller. I'm new to ebay and payed with paypal, and paypal (bless 'em) decided to send my payment via eCheque instead. Got into the seller and he said no problem, cancelled the payment and just let me do it again so pay directly via PayPal Also yeah, I've used them before, Warwickhunt. They're just as good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassbluestew Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I bought a load of the Kodak ones from Poundland ( a pack of 2 units for £1, so 50p each and no waiting for delivery ). Went nuts and bought 5 packs - I know,I'm just soooo extravagent. Haven't tried them yet, but they are the ones Kodak recommend for cameras, and a company as large as Kodak ain't gonna knowingly put their name on sh*t products are they ??? Will let you know.
