The camera made the dying batteries so much more apparent. That was cool.

TLDR =

1. Thunderbolt Edge - 7:47:49 5 cents/hr
2. Energizer - 6:59:09 12 cents/hr
3. Amazon Basics - 6:33:52 5 cents/hr
4. Energizer Lithium - 5:56:34 33 cents/hr
5. Duracell - 5:41:12 13 cents/hr
6. Powermax - 5:05:46 4 cents/hr
7. AC Delco - 3:58:21 8 cents/hr
8. Thunderbolt Magnum - 3:35:46 8 cents/hr

I definitely recommend doing a “best rechargeable battery” video. Test their starting power, how long they take to charge, how long they last, how fast the battery degrades, ext…

[Weazle]

I would love to see if the thunderbolt edge batteries are consistently this good within a pack or between the packs. Redoing the fan and light test with either a whole pack or a battery from multiple packs and comparing data for variation would be interesting

The lithium can just dump more power into the fan. It's just a fan and a switch. The lithium was running faster but didn't last as long. Overall it provides more power but kills itself faster.

I've never watched this channel before but it's nice to see that it has a lot of fans.

Actually depleted batteries do weigh less than they do when fully charged, it's just that there is no consumer grade scale that is sensitive enough to detect the extremely small difference.
It's a physics thing. A compressed spring also weigh more than the same spring in a relaxed state. .

Personally, I love the dragging out! It shows how dedicated and intrigued you are. Love your videos, keep being you!

[Jawsbyte]

The brilliant change of background, how much more perfect can you get? Great vid as always Tyler!

[utrutr]

Good for you for getting a sponsor. I find this video put together and much better than your normal test/comparison videos. The gold standard would definitely be any video from 'Project Farm'. Your lineup of fans/batteries was easy to see and actually measuring time for each was well done...actual measurable data which you don't often do, imo. In this test, for example, I'd recommend you get one of those RPM measuring devices and you could have measured rpm of each on the hour or something until they died.

Anyway, well done and good improvement in your testing/comparison process and video.

Keep it up!

The now sadly discontinued "Alkalisk" AA batteries from of all places Ikea were basically the best i've ever used that were non-lithium disopsables. Same with rechargable, the "Ladda" AA's from Ikea were just as good as, or often longer lasting than my eneloops.

Tyler just sits in his garage and sits there for hours and is probably bored out of his mind to tell us how long a battery lasts, love this man.

[Digital-Dan]

Finally there are reasonably affordable AA-sized Li-Ion rechargables. They are amazing. BTW, There is more to batteries than their longevity. Some batteries are better for heavy loads, others for long length at low currents, or under various surge behaviors, etc. Energizer ultimate lithium is also a favorite. Energizer alkaline are also very good. Eneloop NiMH batteries are fine if you can deal with 1.2V instead of 1.5. BTW, the expired batteries are probably micrograms lighter because of E=mc^2 and all that. EV's weigh a couple grams more when fully charged. It is not a nonsequitur to say that this is why people are so excited about the prospect of nuclear fusion.

You have also demonstrated one reason why people prefer lithium technologies for EVs, power tools, etc: -- the output, after an initial fall-off, remains nearly constant until it drops below useful levels. Thus, devices can rely on full power until there is none, a good feature.

I would be curious to see tests for national store brand batteries such as Walgreens, aldi, Albertsons, cvs, Kroger, Walmart etc. Otherwise I'll definitely be looking into the thunderbolts

[Rheumatoidarthritis]

its kinda scary watching him do semi-professional science. he's unlocked more of his brain.

[benstanfill]

In middle school the duracells crushed it during a battery test for science class. Sad to see then fall. I think Amazon basics will be my next try. Would love to see store brand batteries tested since I work at Walmart, if those are good, then saves me a trip.

[viljester]

The best rechargeable AA battery's would be a good follow up.

[Kbrusky]

The idea to use fans on camera for this test was honestly just brilliant.

[justing]

Thanks Tyler. I been asking the same question for years. I always wondered what double a battery lasts the longest. I would of never thought In a million years that the thunderbolt edge would turn out to be the best battery.

[RudyUhlman]

I have to say I'm a fan of this video. the results really blew me away...
