Help Support TNDeer:
Another AA Lithium Energizer notice.
- Thread starter Mr.Bro
- Start date
Our local Wally jumped price to $23, for same batteries and only ones I run. I cut my cam runs in half this season.
I don't run lithium batteries, too pricey

They are still $34.98 at Sam's for a pack of 18, i.e @ 94 cents each (plus tax).
$14.99 at Academy for 8 = @ $1.87 each (plus tax)

And that's actually pretty amazing that Academy has these batteries for a lower cost than Sam's.
I've also notice that when you find the exact same item, Academy is commonly lower cost than Walmart as well.

I pay 22 for 100 alkaline. They last about 4 months for me. .22 cents each
i would only use lithium in situations where im going to be away for them for long periods of time

There's another situation you might want to consider: Cold Weather.
When an alkaline battery powered cam fails due to the temperature being too cold,
you may not ever know it happened, as the cam may start working properly again by mid-day.
Common core math has got you. But academy is still a better deal by a little

More a case of common carelessness!
Bed Bath & Beyond is $1.40/battery with their 20% off entire purchase coupon. That price is BEFORE tax, so more like $1.50/battery after tax.

Makes a fella want to really reduce the camera fleet

Don't know if it's so or not, but someone told me last week that Buckee's had the best AA battery prices. I will look next time I stop by one. They may have been talking about alkaline.
And/or only add new cams with great battery life!
or go Solar on all the cams. It's crazy, but we can all thank the great electric car demand for using up the lithium.
