I am thoroughly impressed with the Amazon Basics 12-Pack C Cell Alkaline Batteries. These batteries are a fantastic value, offering reliable performance at a fraction of the cost of name-brand alternatives. Here's why I highly recommend them: Long Shelf Life: The advertised 5-year shelf life is a huge plus. I’ve stocked up on these, and it's reassuring to know they’ll be ready to go when I need them. Reliable Performance: I’ve used these batteries in various devices, from flashlights to toys and portable radios, and they deliver consistent power without any issues. They last just as long, if not longer, than premium brands. Affordable: You can’t beat the price for a 12-pack of C cell batteries. It’s an economical choice, especially if you use devices that require these larger batteries. Packaging: The batteries come neatly packaged, making it easy to store them until needed. No unnecessary bulk or wasteful materials. Versatility: These are truly all-purpose batteries and have worked well in everything I’ve tried them with.

  • Perfect Batteries for My Daughter’s Aquarium Light!
Size: 12 Count (C/LR14)
These Amazon Basics C-cell batteries have been a lifesaver in keeping my little one entertained! My daughter’s light-up aquarium attaches to the side of her bassinet, and she absolutely loves it—but it goes through batteries quickly. Thankfully, this 12-pack has been the perfect solution. The price is fantastic compared to other brands, and I appreciate that Amazon offers different pack sizes. While I don’t have any other devices that use these batteries, the 12-pack is just the right quantity to keep her aquarium powered without leaving us with extras we’ll never use. The batteries have a great shelf life, too—no worries about them losing charge if they sit in the drawer for a bit. I’ve been impressed with their performance so far; they last a solid amount of time, even with constant use. If you’re looking for affordable and reliable C batteries, I highly recommend these. They’ve made a big difference in our nightly routine! Pros: - Affordable pricing - Variety of pack sizes - Reliable and long-lasting Cons: - None so far! 5 stars—definitely repurchasing when we run out! ... show more

  • Packaging is bad enough to make me reconsider next time
Size: 8 Count (C/LR14)
The batteries seem fine, are cheap, ship fast, look good, etc. Biggest issue is the packaging, which you will learn to hate very quickly. The tough, thick, sharp, shrink-wrap plastic shell moulds itself around each individual battery, so you have to struggle like a knife fight to get every single battery out. Every single one. This is also true for their AAAs, which means you have a lot of teeny knife fights. You get all cut up no matter how you try to open the plastic -- scissors, a box cutter, a knife, ripping it open like He-Man. Doesn't matter; you will not come out unscathed. Other than that, great batteries! AAA+ ... show more

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option without compromising on quality, these batteries are a solid choice. Highly recommend for everyday use! ... show more
