Our local Wally jumped price to $23, for same batteries and only ones I run. I cut my cam runs in half this season.

 

[Hillbilly Hunter]

I don't run lithium batteries, too pricey

 

[mike243]

I paid that for about 4 AA for my blink camera's. Wife fuss's at me for turning them off before I pull into the driveway lol , I aint cheap i'm thrifty lol

 

[CrossVolle]

i will stop running cameras before i pay the prices you typically are seeing for them right now.

That why I let yall know. Academy 8pack fo14.99r . You aren't going to find any cheaper.

 

[TheLBLman]

They are still $34.98 at Sam's for a pack of 18, i.e @ 94 cents each (plus tax).

$14.99 at Academy for 8 = @ $1.87 each (plus tax)

Umm you divided the wrong numbers

They are $1.94 each from Sam's 18 pack for $35

Boy did I ever!

 

[TheLBLman]

And that's actually pretty amazing that Academy has these batteries for a lower cost than Sam's.

I've also notice that when you find the exact same item, Academy is commonly lower cost than Walmart as well.

 

[redblood]

I pay 22 for 100 alkaline. They last about 4 months for me. .22 cents each

 

[redblood]

i would only use lithium in situations where im going to be away for them for long periods of time

There's another situation you might want to consider: Cold Weather.

When an alkaline battery powered cam fails due to the temperature being too cold,
you may not ever know it happened, as the cam may start working properly again by mid-day.

Common core math has got you. But academy is still a better deal by a little

More a case of common carelessness!

 

[Andy S.]

Bed Bath & Beyond is $1.40/battery with their 20% off entire purchase coupon. That price is BEFORE tax, so more like $1.50/battery after tax.

 

[PickettSFHunter]

Makes a fella want to really reduce the camera fleet

 

[TheLBLman]

Don't know if it's so or not, but someone told me last week that Buckee's had the best AA battery prices. I will look next time I stop by one. They may have been talking about alkaline.

And/or only add new cams with great battery life!

 

[Shooter77]

or go Solar on all the cams. It's crazy, but we can all thank the great electric car demand for using up the lithium.

 

[Chickenrig]

SOLAR PANELS !!!!
Once and done

 

[bloodtrailing]

And now we have threads on the best price for AA batteries. FJB

I was in the Crossville one Thursday and didn't notice any lithiums. I'm a geek and everywhere I find lithiums, I pull my calculator up on my phone to see the price per battery. Didn't see them there, but also didn't look for them. Just noticed they weren't with the alkaline batteries

I quit using them for two reasons and switched to the high dollar lithium. Had one explode in a camera in the summer when it got hot and ruined a brand new camera. The same year had one freeze and released what ever is in it and also ruined a brand new camera. I listen to a lot of podcasts and mossy oak game keepers just did a very interesting podcast on trail cameras. Specifically batteries and brought in 2 or 3 camera manufacturers and another guy that runs like a 100 cameras. Worth a listen.

 

[Speedwell-Hunter]

I miss the days a lithium ion AA was around $1.20 per battery. Dang

[Speedwell-Hunter]

[DMD]

Amazon product ASIN B0BPS8RFBV

 

[CrossVolle]

$1.67 per battery before Tax.

.0975 (9.75% tax) is $1.30 more, total cost is 14.66, so at that rate it is $1.83 per battery, still not a horrible deal.
