So does anyone really purchase the name brands anymore?

So, lets say these batteries aren't as good as the two big brands. Lets also say that they last 20 percent less than the big brands. Would you still buy them? Well, there it is. These batteries will not last as long as the main brand, or the number two brand. But they are a *lot* less money. So, if your batteries are difficult to change, then your choice is clear. Anything else -- this is a good choice.

Per one of the negative comments - yes this came in a box labelled "Pleomax" however it also says that Pleomax is part of Samsung, so it looks to me like a branding change on Samsung's part, not a bait-and-switch by the seller.

I read in Consumer Reports a while ago that in their testing, generic alkaline batteries are the same or nearly the same as the "big brands" so I've been buying whatever is the cheapest for years with no regrets. These seem just fine - my flashlight shines as bright as ever, gadgets seem to last as long as usual. Given the great price I am a satisfied customer.
