KEEP telling you lot

the Which magazine are just about the only testing no profit no axe to grind proper test outfit in the country total reliable accurate testing

and the ALDI batteries PISS ALL OVER 90% of the other makes they score almost the same as the top battery that was the Mallory duracell just very slightly less BUT AT 1/4 of the price !!! £ 2.49 for a pack of 2 please save yourselves a few bob and give em a try same as their AA and AAA my dab radio runs so much longer on these

some say they are rebadged Duracell but cant tell if thats true

Can't argue with the value for money. But if money is no object then the Lithium batteries mentioned earlier cannot be beaten on performance. Just a shame they are soooo expensive.
Good job I managed to acquire a box for free.

Have a look at battery station. Lithium are about £6 each or cheaper if you buy 10
Best to make up a decent order as postage is a few quid. Typically good quality 9v alkaline ones such as duracell are about £1 each

yes probably was as I have been banging on about them for years if you measure the voltage on AA batteries most are around 1,2v but only the the Aldi always measure 1.5v same as Duracell which adds to the theory they are a rebadged Duracell at a 1/4 of the price

Any 9v I've stuck in a delk has lasted an age. I wouldn't worry

I've not had the txi D's very long. The Duracell battery in the receiver let me down after a few weeks with hardly any use. Changed the battery in October & again hardly any use, battery dead when I got the alarms out the shed yesterday. Admittedly stored over the winter but has anyone else had a similar problem? I'm wondering if there is a drain on the receiver?

I seem to get about a year out of my battery's with around 20 to 25 nights fishing.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
