How long can these sit in storage?

Energizer rates shelf life at up to 15 years in storage. Keep them in a dry place at room temperature.

Are these good for high-drain devices?

They work, but alkaline cells run down faster than lithium AA in cameras, motorized toys and other high-drain gear. For those, Ultimate Lithium is the better fit.

No. These are single-use alkaline cells. For repeat use, choose Energizer Recharge batteries and a charger.

How do they compare with Energizer Ultimate Lithium?

MAX is the everyday alkaline option. Ultimate Lithium lasts longer, weighs less and handles cold better, but it is not the right pick for low-drain devices where alkaline is enough.

Will they leak in my device?

Any alkaline cell can leak if left in a device for a long time or run flat. Remove them from devices you store unused.

What devices are they meant for?

Remotes, clocks, toys, game controllers and other everyday electronics. They fit any device that takes standard AA cells.

Our take on the Energizer MAX AA Batteries (24 Pack), Double A Alkaline Batteries

Energizer MAX AA is the brand's mainstream alkaline line, positioned below Ultimate Lithium and above the basic carbon-zinc cells. The 24-pack suits households that run through batteries in remotes, clocks, toys and game controllers. Energizer claims a more efficient cell design for longer run time and up to 15 years of shelf life. It is a solid everyday choice, though rechargeables and lithium cells beat it in high-drain devices and in cold or long-storage use.
