Capacity of batteries «Carrefour Discount» - detailed results

Data: Brand / Model Carrefour Discount Price 0.61 € Unit price 0.15 € Alternative packagings — Expiry 2016 Origin China Store Carrefour Starting voltage 6.35 V Average voltage during discharge 4.89 V Measured capacity (main discharge) 2260 ±1% mAh Measured capacity (coastdown) 274 mAh Energy 2.77 W·h Date of measurement 6 Jun 2012

Notes:

These batteries are very similar to the other ones from the same store - „Carrefour Alcaline“ - but some form of discount on the price is expected. The actual price tag varies, I bought them at 0.61€, but they are seen lately positioned at 0.76€.

Among the non-rechargeable chemistries, the Carrefour brand is the only one so far that mentions a capacity on the label. In this case, it claims 2500 mAh, which is a bit overstated (or a lower discharge current is implied). In any case, this variant is virtually indistinguishable from its „Alcaline“ counterpart (which is also labeled as 2500 mAh).
