Hello everybody,
How can I tell what name brand manufacturer(Energizer, Duracell, etc.) makes a private label battery? I was in a Meijer(similar to a Super Wal-Mart or Big K-Mart) store recently and compared Energizer, Duracell, Rayovac Maximum, and Meijer brand AA, C, D batteries. In every case, the shape and dimple pattern on the bottom of the Energizer and Meijer brands were the same and the Duracell and Rayovac were both different from the Energizer. Can I conclude that Meijer brand batteries are made by Energizer? I know that my methods aren't exactly thorough.
I did notice one interesting fact. A Meijer brand 6 volt lantern battery had a ruptured outer case. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that it contained 4 Rayovac Maximum D cells. These cells didn't have the top nipple but did have the Maximum label on them. Very odd. Of course, I only buy the lantern batteries that use F size cells.
Thanks.
