The Eveready Gold is a good performer in most situations and has a good shelf life. Its best use is in low-to-moderate drain devices such as torches, gaming controllers, radios and TV remotes.

Eveready Gold AA Value packs
Pros
Seemed to be good value for money.
Cons
Had a poor response of TV remote with these new (expiry date 05/2032) batteries fitted. Tested using both a retail battery tester and my multimeter and found that the majority of output voltage was between 1.1 to 1.38V, which basically means they're flat. Only eight out of the pack of 24 gave initial voltages of >1.5V. Not a good result in my opinion.
Recommend it?
No, this product has too many drawbacks.
