Default Re: The hidden danger of dead batteries...

Eneloop and Duracell for me - plenty of other good brands out there but I like reliability and I know I get that from those batteries. Pound shop batteries are fine in a cheapo torch or something but I wouldn't use them in anything expensive.

But even good batteries in a cheap Chinese charger can be a ton of trouble so even if something claims to be able to charge the batteries internally, I always use a separate, good quality charger.

From a reputable source, too! Lots of fake stuff out there...
