    Wholesale Battery Suppliers: alkaline, lithium, rechargeable, coin and watch batteries. Including Energizer, Sony, Panasonic, AA, AAA Batteries. Wholesale bulk prices.


    and




    are the places I shop.

    However, One time I purchased Energizer replacement for my Sony camcorder (batteries.com) and it lasted as long as my 3 years old original.

    After that I did purchase OEM battery from E-bay, and I was nicely surprised, It lasted as long as the original one when brand new.

    Don’t know the places you’re talking about.

      I've bought generic batteries for my camcorder and all my past/present still cameras on eBay. A lot of the retail websites are just resellers of the same "Made In China" generics you get from the Hong Kong eBay sellers.

      The generic batteries have always performed just as well as the OEM's. Maybe I've just gotten lucky but I've never had a problem with them.

      For example, I just got two NB-4L batts for a Canon SD1000 from a seller in HK for about $8.00, shipping included.

      I have two old NB-5L generics ($10 total) that are just now starting to fade after 2 years and 20,000 plus pictures.
