What buyers say about Amazon Basics 4 Pack AA High-Performance Alkaline Batteries
The power supplied per dollar spent is very good, but is overshadowed by other currently available options, for the cost of $0.31/ea in a 36 pack, these are a decent but beatable value.
The AmazonBasics batteries are tied for the top spot with the other 6 brands I tested, but other brands have the edge in capacity per dollar.
Its not worth it to get cheaper brands like cream cheese or chocolate chips, they're just as good as the big brands.
I like listening to music and cutting grass with a radio head set, but I don't use my mower engine, so I usually change the batteries out about every 6 weeks.

Common Questions
Can you please tell me how much power these store?

Is it a good idea to leak?
If you use the device frequently, there will be no leaks but if not, expect them.
Are the alkaline batteries made in the US?
I have never looked at the packaging before, but it looks like they make their way to Mexico before going to a distribution company in Seattle.
