Reply to comment by The-Jack-of-Diamonds in LPT: Pick at least 1 day a year to check/replace/remove dying batteries, not just in smoke alarms. Weather radios, older remotes, anywhere they may leak and ruin devices. And recycle, don't toss the old ones. Time change dates are easiest to remember, or set 1 or 2 annual reminders. by Njtotx3

The ikea ones are meant to be basically the same as eneloop at a much lower cost but possibly a bit worse qc

Yes you’re right, Amazon also makes their own that have done really well in testing against eneloop.

Basically you should use those, or lithium batteries in anything you care about. I never use Alkaleaks anymore, too much valuable shit ruined by them.
