FAQs
Do battery brands matter?
The old saying, "you get what you pay for" doesn’t quite ring true when it comes to buying batteries. According to a recent study released by DealNews.com, alkaline batteries - regardless of brand - deliver the same power and performance. They conclude, “You’re better off buying less expensive batteries, such as Rayovac, or Energizer or Duracells cheaper online, because our exclusive tests show there is no measurable difference in quality among these batteries.” At Battery Market you’ll find these great brands and even greater savings. .
Buy cheaper batteries online with confidence, and remember to save even more with Battery Market’s bulk buy deals.

What type of battery do I need - high-drain or low-drain?
High-drain and low-drain devices compare to one another like the rabbit and turtle in that infamous race. A high-drain device uses a lot of power in a short time (portable video game, MP3/iPod, cellphone) – like the rabbit running for the finish line. A low–drain device only uses electricity sometimes (like a TV remote control) or a little bit over a long time (like an alarm clock) – just like the turtle moving slow and steady.
