[size=+3]Notes and links[/size]

How is the test done and how to read the charts
Other 9V batteries: Alkaline/NiMH/Lithium/other

Thanks.
Interesting, where Ikea got this name? derived from Hydralisk, from StarCraft?

Do they sell the Energizer lithium 9 volt in Denmark?
Ostensibly it is 3x cr2 cells in series {or damn close to it in size}

Works well in the cold, for garage door openers. {the former LA522}

Alkalisk is just the Swedish word for alkaline. IKEA names seemed mysterious to me until I learned Swedish and found out that they are just common nouns and (place) names.

HKJ, it's Alkalisk, not Alkaliske. I assume that's how you would spell alkalisk in Danish?

I think he's using the plural form: et alkalisk batteri, flere alkaliske batterier.

It was a typo, it was supposed to match the text on the battery.

A typo would have been my second guess. Oh well, I got a chance to brush up on my Danish - with a little help from Google Translate. Thanks for the review, by the way, it reminded me that it is about time I replaced the battery in my smoke detector.
