    I only run Energizer ultimate lithium they are by far the longest lasting I get a full season plus on all of my Bushnell tc's and I don't worry about them leaking destroying my cameras. They are expensive but in the long run they pay for themselves.

    Went back with Duracell Coppertops found. 32 pk on eBay.My last set lasted about 5 months.Those Rayovac's might be good for radios etc...but not cameras.

    I switched to Eneloop rechargeable batteries years ago in all 12 of my Browning cams and will never go back. Fully charged they will show between 75-85% on the camera status screen but last longer than the store bought batteries with no ill effects on camera operation. And you save a bunch of $.
