Dynex batteries.

[Demon-Xanth]

So the batteries in my DMM that I keep in my car died. They're 9 years old. It happens. So I look around to see if anyone has any deals and I find this:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp...yId=pcmcat28800050005&id=1099388637377

48 AA batteries for $18.

Does anyone know if they're worth using or would I be better off going for 24 energizers for $14 or 16 Duracell for $11?

It's Best Buy's in store brand. So that might tell you something there All kidding aside, I've used Dynex cd-r's and dvd-r's and haven't had any problems.

All batteries come from pretty much the same line (there are 3 major battery manufactures, i think) and are remanfactured under a different name.

I don't think Gibson486 has ever encountered "Plenticells", the official battery peddled on the NYC subway system.

Oh, yes I have...they sell them on the street in Chinatown in Boston they look a Duracell, but they perform like they came out of a failed engineers basement.

Like I said, 3 MAJOR battery manufactures. Sure, there are others out there, but if you get a store brand item, it's most likely from 1 of thsoe major ones (Walgreens is made by Duracell, Shaws batteries is made by Energizer)
