Designed for consistent power across a wide range of devices like toys, flashlights, and remotes. Review: Excellent value AA batteries - I used these in remotes, clocks, fairy lights and other household bits, and they have been completely reliable so far. The pack size is handy because there is always something in the house needing AA batteries. I have not had any leaking or short life issues in normal use. They are not fancy, but they are dependable and good value, which is exactly what I want from everyday batteries. Review: Better quality and value than Poundland! - I once read somewhere that Poundland sold more batteries per unit than any other retailer in the UK, and based on this alone I always used to buy their Kodak batteries assuming they were the best value out there. I was wrong. These desertcart batteries are far superior. For someone like me running a plethora of toddler toys, cat fountains, and electronic devices I really notice how long batteries last, as I’m always hunting around for the smallest screw driver trying to get the tiniest screw out of something or other. I can categorically say these batteries are great value and last a long time. The packaging is specifically designed around the shape of the batteries so they always arrive in perfect condition. It is far more convenient for me to have them arrive the next morning with Prime than high street shopping for them. The quantities available also always mean I have some in the cupboard ready for the next toy breakdown emergency! They are always kept in a high cupboard out of toddler hands however I also appreciate how tightly they are wrapped in plastic it’s unlikely one will fall out into prying hands. ## Features - One 48-pack AA 1.5-volt performance alkaline batteries for reliable performance across a wide range of devices - Delivers the amount of power needed for a specific device; ideal for game controllers, toys, flashlights, digital cameras, clocks, and more - Note: these batteries are NOT rechargeable.

However, just recently pulled a few out of the package, having never been used, and they tested at only 1 volt instead of 1 1/2 volts. Of the 10 batteries that I still haven't used, all of them test at 1 volt or less now. When they were new, all the ones I tested were more than 1 1/2 volts. Not a single one of them leaked, but apparently the 10 year shelf life applies only to leakage, not battery life. **Q: Are these batteries loose in the box or shrink wrapped in packs of four?** A: Shrimp wrapped in packs of four, with a resealable box. **Q: How good are the batteried? Do they last long as Duracell?** A: Work great for the price. Have not compared them to Duracell. Seem to last just ad long as other batteries I have paid more for. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent value AA batteries *by S***T on 28 April 2026* I used these in remotes, clocks, fairy lights and other household bits, and they have been completely reliable so far.
