Set it and forget it for exterior Christmas lights.

I bought these batteries for the outside net lights I put on the bushes for Christmas. I saw they were cheaper than Duracell or Energizer and had good ratings, so I gave them a try. I installed them in the lights and put the lights out on my bushes a week after Thanksgiving. Winters in the upper midwest get cold, but these batteries kept the lights going brightly every night for 6 hours, for a month and still have juice in them. I removed them from the lights and packed them away until next Christmas. I did not check them with a meter, so I don't know how much juice is in them, but I'm impressed they were able to power on in the extra cold weather we had this year.

Lasted more than the whole weekend in my lantern

Picked these up as a cheap alternative to name brand batteries when I went on my camping trip. I needed D Cell for my lantern. I figured that even if these didn't last the whole weekend in the lantern, I could use more than a few. Surprisingly, or unsurprisingly, I never needed to change the batteries the whole weekend. Very happy with these batteries, good price point, overall good quality. I would definitely purchase again.

Best packaging ever

They seem to work just as well as the name-brand batteries, and for an excellent price. The best thing is the "frustration free" packaging. It's a breeze to remove batteries (and put them back, if you decide you don't need them! Goodbye, plastic clamshell packaging.

Excellent batteries

While I have no hard-n-concrete data or number crunches for the efficacy of batteries, the Amazon branded alkaline batteries seem to last just as long in items as any name brand. We have purchased the Amazon brand alkaline batteries in every size, and have had no complaints or problems with them. They come packaged exceedingly well, which I love. We'll continue to buy these until there is a reason why we should stop (quality change, etc).

Let there be light

Thank you Amazon for having a large stock of batteries when stores ran out. While others were frantically searching local stores' I ordered these on my couch at home and they arrived in 2 days. These batteries are strong and provided light during the blackout of Hurrican Irma.

Surprised by how good these were!

Amazon batteries? Really? Well, Yes! I tried them in several devices... flashlights, portable radio, and especially in outdoor motion-detector flood lights... and then forgot about them. Today I just put in new sets of batteries in my flood lights after 20 months of nightly service in illuminating my front and back doors. Twenty Months! Not bad, Amazon, not bad!

Great Batteries

There is a guy on Youtube that tested many batteries and for the money, Amazon Basics give you the best bang for the buck. Duracell scored well for a longer charge but for the cost, these won. I use D, AA and AAA over Duracell now. Excellent battery!!!

Well-priced and seem to do the job well. We ...

Well-priced and seem to do the job well. We have some 'sonic mole chasers' buried in the yard, they need replacement batteries every 6 months. Instead of having the critters remind me of when to replace the batteries, I get a pack of these D-cells sent automatically via Subscribe-and-Save -- not only do I appreciate the discount, but it's a built-in reminder to change the batteries on time!

None damaged

Works, no damaged ones, no pushed in tops, none dented, great packaging. It also seems that NO battery manufacturer is immune to leaks as I have had name brands destroy my MAG lights. Guess it goes to show that anything with batteries needs to be inspected periodically, especially if not used for a long time.

Very Good Value Priced D-Cell Alkaline

Good quality batteries. The power output and longevity of these batteries in my equipment seem comparable to the Rayovac and Duracell alkaline cells I use, and I haven't had a single rupture or leak. Out all the cells I've used so far, every one performed well, without a single dud. For the money, I think these are the best D-Cells out there - and I've tried a LOT. Here's my results of real-world usage (most favorite, to least favorite): AmazonBasics - Good power output, average longevity, consistently low price. Rayovac - Good power output, great longevity, varied price (I find good deals every few weeks). Never seem to leak. Ikea - Average power output (flickers a little), fair longevity, usually the lowest price. Maxell - Good power output, great longevity, good price, but one in every few dozen eventually leaks. Duracell - Good power output, great longevity, varied price, but one in every few dozen eventually leaks. Sunbeam - Average power output, fair longevity, consistently low price, but prone to leakage. Energizer - Inconsistent power output (some flicker a lot, some don't), average longevity, can be expensive, and seem VERY prone to leakage. As such, I now use the AmazonBasics in all of my everyday-use D-cell flashlights, lanterns, and motion sensors. I save the Rayovacs for stuff I keep in storage, and in my emergency kits. I'm currently storing a few AmazonBasics to test them for leakage, and - thus far - I haven't had a single one leak. I'll update my review, as I use them further.
