Digital camera reviews of NABC UltraLast ULA100AAB AA Size General Purpose Battery - Alkaline - 1.5V DC General Purpose Battery-100 count
Digital camera Review: Low Battery Life
Summary: 1 Stars
I've gone through a box of these and will never buy more of this brand. In fact, it has been kind of a lesson for me in buying cheap batteries. They simply do not last. I've haven't done formal testing testing, but my wife says that her electric toothbush eats these up twice as fast as a name brand battery. I've had some batteries leak on me recently. I didn't pay attention which brand, just threw them out. But given the number of complaints that people have been having about leaking batteries, it's a pretty good bet they were the ultralast.
When we have guests staying over, I often supply batteries when they need them. The last time a guest needed a pair of AA's for her camera. Normally one uses a better quality battery than AA Alkalines for cameras, but I've used them in a pinch when nothing else is handy. Not the Ultralast. The camera was dead as a doornail -- didn;t have the oomf to even operated the camera.
Digital camera Review: NO QUALITY CONTROL
Summary: 1 Stars
The order process and shipping were fine, the problem was that half of the batteries were old and leaking upon arrival. I didn't have time to return as these were to be put in toys for party favors on Halloween, so I had to replace them at the drug store. You get what you pay for - NO QUALITY CONTROL ON WHAT LEAVES THE SHIPMENT CENTERDigital camera Review: Not bad, but...
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought 100 of these batteries a year ago. They have been fine for radios, remote controls and other undemanding gadgets. I don't know if it's the humidity or the nature of the batteries, but some have now started to leak. I've thrown away about 20 and have the same number left.
If these batteries suit your purposes, I would suggest buying a smaller pack and using them quickly, rather than hoarding a large number as I did.
Digital camera Review: Not the same as store brands!
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these thinking they are the same as the Sam's/Walmart store brand bulk pack. They are not. About half the batteries are bad out of the pack.
They foreshadow their lack of quality control with an insert that says if any of these batteries are bad, please send them to ____ for a replacement. I really do not want to send a 20¢ (or any number of them) back for a replacement. I just want the battery to work.
BTW, I have not check the expected life. As I am only putting them in electronics that get infrequent use (kid's pencil sharpener) or have minimal power demands (remote controls).
Digital camera Review: Quantity > Quality
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased these batteries to put in my nephews toys. Since he has plenty of toys, uses them all the time, and burns through lots of batteries, I needed lots of batteries at a cheap rate. These batteries fit the bill perfectly. The quality of the batteries may not be the best but they are very cost efficient
