Activ Energy AA and AAA Batteries
These batteries work OK initially and the actual power of these batteries might be alright but they can and do leak badly and cause problems and I think they are a poor product. Activ Energy batteries have damaged, in my case, a home weather station, 2 x LED torches, a portable radio and an expensive headlamp -- all within the batteries 3 year "guarantee" period. Guaranteed against what? After what I felt was this unusual number of failures I contacted Aldi, told them of my experiences and suggested they investigate and change their supplier....Read more
They did reply and after the third damage instance over only about 3 months and me sending photos of the damage they gave me my money back for all the batteries I was able to return to them but no compensation for the damaged devices. Despite acknowledging they may not be the best product, and saying that they "do their best" they gave no undertaking to do things better so I expect the same product will remain in their stores. Use these batteries by all means but do so thoughtfully. Absent special monitoring do expect that these Activ Energy batteries will eventually leak, make a mess and damage whatever they are installed in. And they will do this whilst relatively young. I also note for what it is worth that the Activ Energy alkaline batteries post 2016 appear to be from a different factory than those prior to that date. You may be better off to get name brand batteries on special, which is what I am doing from now on.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
