100 Good Quality AA or AAA Alkaline Batteries - £14.99 at Maplin

rdwarr

This deal comes up from time to time but this time it's for both sizes of battery. Available instore and online.

AA Batteries Link - AAA are on the Right

These always get good reviews and are not to be confused with the "10 for £1" ones you get from the cheap shops. They last well and are ideal for people who prefer not to use rechargeables.

Good deal.

The 10 for £1/99p ones in Poundland/99p Shop are Zinc Chloride and are utter crud for most high drain items. For TV remotes, clocks etc they are fine.

If you're using high drain devices, I totally recommend

After reading about how people were changing the batteries in Innotabs and the like, I bought them to go in my daughters one (Christmas present). I've not been disappointed. I don't need to recharge them very often at all, probably once a week at most. They only take an hour to charge (using the charger in the link) which is amazing.

Ended up buying five sets of the batteries and it's already saved me a fortune.

Just a word of warning, it's not clear when you order but icellmedia on Amazon are in Germany so delivery takes a week or two. Worth the wait imho

I thoroughly recommend these Maplin batteries, we bought some in December on the same offer and they are fab on high drain items (Innotab, Kiddizoom camera) similar life to Duracell.
