Batteries: What Size And Brand Do You Use Most?

Energizer Lithium Batteries - They cost more than regular alkaline batteries but last up to seven times longer.

I use AA and AAA sized batteries more than any other. My remote controls, toys, wireless PS2 controllers and walkie talkies all use AA sized batteries. My MP3 player is pretty much the only thing that takes AAA sized batteries and I have it on all the time so I do go through a lot of batteries. Do you have a specific brand you buy? Do you go through one size more than others? I found the Duracell Procell to have the longest life they they aren't exactly cheap.

Just about the only batteries I use are AA... Most of the things I use already comes with rechargeable batteries built into them, cell. phone, flash lights etc... My cell. phone has it's own rechargeable battery, I have 2 of those 1 million + candle powered flash lights, one for the car & one for the house, that has built in rechargeable batteries... 2 out of 4 remotes use AA batteries so I use rechargeable batteries for them & same as the other 2 remotes that uses AAA batteries, which I have rechargeable batteries for them, too... I don't really have have portable music player so I listen it music in my car, stereo in the house & on my computer... My daughter has inexpensive cd player that takes 2 AA batteries but she has set of her own rechargeable batteries...My palm pilot has it's own built in rechargeable battery... I do have in my car one of those flash lights that you shake, see picture below, just in case the "flood" flash light goes out... come to think of it, I really don't have the need for batteries that much & the ones that take batteries, I've got more than enough rechargeable batteries for them...

I go through AA mostly because that's what my digital camera takes. I have rechargeable Energizer batteries and they work great. I never have to buy new batteries and they last a lot longer than regular batteries do.
