i run a large assortment of cameras and I'm always trying different batteries. i have used standard alkaline, rechargeable and lithium. i recently found the Duracell quantum that are suppose to equivalent to the energizer ultimate lithium, but considerably cheaper. i found the E lithium for 19$ for 20 and the Duracell were 17$ for 36 batteries. i bought 2 packs of the Duracell to try out, i am wondering if anyone has used them compared to regular alkaline and the energizer? thank you

I use only Lithiums...they others may be fine for warmer weather, but not for the cold........ Energizer Lithiums for me....my M80's(5 of 'em) have been out since August and still show 90% on 'em, and this is after many weeks of cold temps 30 to 7 degree's and about 150-200 pics every 2 weeks or so, many of those are night too......

Lithiums all the way. Alkalines can't compete with them, especially in the cold..

Duracell quantum are no where near as good as lithiums. I tried the quantum this spring as I was told they were just as good as lithium and way cheaper. Well with lithium I can run my reconyx all year and have 90% plus battery life left. I ran it with quantum this spring and after 3 weeks the batteries were dead which sucked cause I check my cams like every 4-5 weeks during the summer
