Message: [QUOTE="Paul, post: 14242710"] Even with branded batteries, you don't know who really made them. Try to find a review for a named product, before you buy. I've bought batteries at the "Battery Store" in the mall, and they were flat. There wasn't any charge left in them a day later. So you can't even depend on purpose-built suppliers to stock good stuff. My recipe for digital watch batteries, was to go to a department store with high levels of product turnover. And I always seemed to get good batteries there. But as for brands, I don't really know what's out there. I know some people swear by the batteries they got off Ebay or the like. But I really don't know a way to judge products like that. There is even less control over who really made them. (You could have a Panasonic branded battery, as a knockoff from China. An Ebay seller wouldn't really care where they got the battery from.) Paul [/QUOTE]
