Because of temperature extremes in the car Lithium is the only type of battery I'll use in my accessories. Other types end up leaking. I also like the long storage for seldom used applications. I want them ready when I need them.

These Energizer Advanced Lithium AA batteries are a wonder for my portable compact disc player and Wii remote. I'll put it to you this way. I have listened to 20 cds all the way through plus cds that I skipped around on and they still have juice (with anti-skip on). I put a fresh pair in my Wii remote and played Super Mario Galaxy 2 for the first time. I put in many many hours on the game even with the remote speaker on a lower volume (the way I like it). I beat the main quest while collecting over 90 stars and they were literally 2 hours away from making it it all the way through. I am happy to know that there are batteries like this nowadays that I can just put in to these devices and just forget about swapping for a long while.

Other pros: Lighter than alkalines (another plus for the Wii remote and certain other portable devices)
Better and Safer for the environment.

Cons: Some would say price, but thinking about it. I think it's justified. You don't have to swap out as much, carry as many around, they last about 3 or 4 times longer than alkalines (depending on device). And they are better for the environment.
I am going to stock up on these sometime for sure.

Replaced all the batteries in our flashlights with lithiums...made them noticably lighter, and love that they'll last a really long time. Wish they were less expensive.

Update 8/22/11:
Power went out a few days ago and I was very glad to have a little flashlight with this battery in my nightstand (also attached Kelty triptease lanyard to it so I can see it at night - thanks NutNFancy!!). Also went camping a month ago and had to use our tiny flashlights because our larger one ate its batteries too fast. These batteries lasted the entire trip (one week) as our main light source. Will buy a few more packs for our emergency radio.

So Far these battiers seem to working very well for my wii remotes....have played probably 15+ hrs so far and they are still goin strong. GREAT PRICE!!

UPDATE: These batteries are GREAT. Its been about 4 months and we just had to replace them. The Wii remote is used on a daily basis when playing the Wii and when we arent playing games we are watching NextFlix. Great Batteries, Highly recommened!!

I have had pretty good luck with the Energizer lithium batteries. I have used them in a Digital Wall Clock and it lasted about 2 years. I also have used it in an AA battery camera and it seems to do about 2-3x longer life than regular Energizer or Duracell batteries. What is amazing is the lower prices for the product as I think they were 2x as much.

Highest review for AA batteries from many sources. Long lasting. Worth the purchase price!
Wish they had D batteries in the same format.

I purchased two "packs" of the batteries. Had to pay the postman $.43 cents to get the package when it came. When I opened the package the 8 batteries were in a little cardboard box with an energizer sticker on it. I checked the batteries with my battery tester and one of them was drained half way. I called the 800 number that came with the package and talked to Tito and Simon about postage due and the drained battery. They were very enthusiastic about customer service and said they'd give me a credit for the drained battery and postage due. Said they get the postage amount right from the USPS and would have to deal with them to resolve the issue. I haven't checked yet if the credit has shown up, but will update this review if it does not show. Overall I am satisfied with the purchase.

New in the package lithium batteries, great for use in digital cameras, wireless mice, etc. Will last a long time, before you have to replace it. I was having to replace the battery in my wireless mouse at least once a month. Put one of these batteries in it the day I received them, and it hasn't had to be replaced yet.

I used two of these batteries in a weather station, probably a low draw application. Manual estimates battery life at 1.5-2 years with alkalines. These lasted two months. Don't know if I got bad batteries or I used them in the wrong application. I'm thinking bad batteries as lithium cells are supposed to maintain their voltage over long periods and when they do finally die, their voltage drop off curve is precipitous.

I've used the advanced lithium AAs before and loved them, they lasted nearly 2 months in all my Wii remotes, xbox controllers and even nearly a full month in both my Game Boy Color and Advance! So when I found my old Game Boy Pocket I decided I had to try out the AAAs figuring they'd be the same. I paid about $8 for the 4 pack and popped them in. After only maybe 2 days of off and on playing with the volume off most of the time and contrast low they were dead. Sure normal Energizers are much heavier but they last just as long and are WAY cheaper. Pass on these and save your money, just go for the normal brand.
