Morning Theo :thumbup:

My various sets of the Ansmann 2850mAh's are still going well in the thermal and the Foxpro (8 in there) ...I've lost track of how many years old they are now and had one fail after 12months....all 4 in that set were replaced by picstop the original fleabay seller.

I use the Energiser Ultimate Lithiums in the tubed spotters and the Xtremes which last well.... Just turning on for the shot on the .17rem and the .20prac and I've had several nights on the Drats with the Xtreme on the air rifle where its been on all the time. In comparison the Duracells are crap. I'm just looking at the 50 pack deals on fleabay for the lithiums.....there was one the other day for £25! Next cheapest is around £28...that's a lot of battery.

Cheers

Fizz

After using the ikea own brand throw aways I will never touch another duracell or enegiser. The ikea batteries are £1.50 for 10 and always out last any well known brand of battery.
