Oxyride vs alkaline results posted

[John Harper AE5X]

Wires no longer snaking into the refridgerator and freezer, I've completed comparative tests between Panasonic's new Oxyride and Duracell's alkaline batteries at various temperatures. Charts are posted here:

Three temps (5F, 40F and 70F) and their effects on the Duracell's effectiveness are here:

I hope some of you find this useful and I'm glad I'm not among the (small) crowd who will make use of the 5-degree plot!

I use AA cells in my camera flashes.  I would not dream of using alkalines due to cost & filling land fills.  I'm using Sanyo Eneloop cells.  Have you looked into these?  I got mine through Amazon and they're fairly inexpensive.

 

Thanks for the tests!
