They're 1.25 at the dollar store *for a 4 pack, but holy shit. They're good for maybe 6 hours in a controller. Not even 6 hours of use but just if its on.

I'm on my third pair in my controller since like Thursday. Duracell or energizer last a week easy.

Environmentally speaking these things have to be just the worst.

I use Panasonic rechargables and they're pretty solid.

IDK, I switched to the Sorbo rechargable lithium ones they sell on Amazon. They all charge via USB.

I need to switch to rechargeables again.

My charger broke but I've got some energizers (I think) that were good. Panasonic would be fine if they were rechargeable too really. its just the idea of making the damn things and then they can be used up so quickly... how does that even make sense.

With the obvious exception of any plastic, there's nothing bad for the environment in an alkaline battery.
