Just changed the battery in my automobile's key-FOB & it occurred to me that I've been changing it too often.
I also surveyed how many devices I have with them & there's the bathroom scales, kitchen scales, & two tuners (not machine-heads).

So, what have you found has the longest life?

I'm leaning towards Energizer right now, but can't find an Industrial-strength one like I did for 9 Volt batteries.
 
Energizer only cost twice as much as the Dollar Tree Sunbeam brand, & they'll probably last a fair bit longer:

You will notice the weight difference quite a bit more if you pick up a pack of AA Energizers in one hand and the same quantity of AA Cheapos in the other. There is just more material in the top name brand batteries. That's why they last longer. My first choice has always been Energizer, then Duracel, then Rayovac.
