PROCELLDuracell AA Alkaline 144 Batteries

been using these now for 3 seasons and I wouldn't use anything else. these batteries are made for trail cams. I run 18 cameras from May thru December and one set of batteries last the whole season. when you buy in bulk, they are a real bargain.

I ordered 144 Duracell cells and received them the next afternoon. The Duracell Intense brand cells came in 6 small boxes of 24, each box taped with original looking tape. The small boxes came in a ProCell printed outer corrugated box. They were individually marked with an expiration date of March 2026, about 23 months away. Everything looks legit.Now, for those who do not understand about ProCells, they are the bulk or wholesale name for Duracells that are not for individual retail sales. They do not contain any attractive packaging and are bulk boxed. They are targeted to large volume professional users. I have been using them in a broadcast environment for wireless microphones, remote controls, and torch/flashlights for years and they seem to perform well.I tested each and every cell with a 3 Ω load in parallel with a voltmeter. All 144 cells performed within specifications, although 8 tested erratically. When inspected carefully, the 8 had a thin layer of some substance on the negative end that acted as an insulator. I was able to remove the crud with a polishing cloth and all 5 then tested as the rest.This is the first time I have seen any substance on new ProCells and will update my review if the lifespan appears different from purchases made from my other wholesale supply company who was temporarily out of stock. For now, they are fine and working as our previous ones.------------- Update ------------2 months later I am disappointed to report that 2 of the 8 crusty cells continued to accumulate a white substance on the negative end while in flashlight/torch service and were subsequently replaced. I did not keep track of hours so cannot say definitively that they failed early except for the crust. I have never had Procells show crust except after years in storage. This is a concern. The date code says that they should be good. Could this be a batch that was exposed to excessive heat or cold? I am seeing many reports that Duracell brand generally leaks more than Energizer and that this batch is typical. I will continue to update my review as more is learned.------------- Update #2 ------------Crusting seems to be isolated to a small percentage of the cells, but why should ANY be doing this? I will probably be buying another brand in the future.

Best for wireless microphone. We use them in church for hour to hour and 20 min, and they last 4-5 services which is over a month for us whereas the regular batteries would not last us 1 full hour. Only for microphones, we have used them for in-ear monitors and the battery drains faster

Works for phantom power tascam Dr 50 with expansion module

I bought 144 batteries in May 2023 as backup inventory. Sold by Priceware. When I opened the original packaging and started using them in late 2024, they were all dead!!Too late to return to Amazon or get credit. Note: It's printed on the package, "Procell products are not intended for retail sale and the Professional End User Warranty (1 yr) is not available to retail consumers."

Good price. Quick delivery.

Good batteries. We use a lot of batteries because we have several wildlife cameras and they last.

Received very quickly. Same exact batteries as I use at work (Boeing). I've read from various sources that the commercial variants of all the big battery manufacturers aren't as good as the retail versions, main difference is they don't survive long term storage as well. Keep that in mind if you are buying this huge pack of batteries and expect them to still be at full power 2 years from now. 1 year maybe they will be within 90% of full charge and will quickly die thereafter.
