said by Cthen:Why do you think I want to know what is in that battery when my question was why doesn't Philips know? Yet again you put up a quote about Zinc-Chloride, these are Zinc-Carbon, again telling me Philips has no clue what they are selling.
Also again, why was it's intended use not stated on the packaging like any other brand does?
So, what good would Googling "Philips long life batteries" do for me again?
Read the damn links, all the information is on zinc carbon batteries, but you can't bother yourself to read this information, which I feel would also be on the back of their packaging. It was all over their website also.... You seem oblivous to reality...
