Battery Energizer or OEM BMW

Pros: lasted forever
Vehicle:

Recently i was able to acquire some Japanese Energizer 2300 and 800mAh AA and AAA batteries...from my experience with the Energizers so far they are much much better then any other NiMH battery I've ever used including the Chinese Panasonic NiMH batteries.
Pros: far better, low discharge
I have the Energizer battery in mine. It's worked perfectly so far. The included posts are plug and play with the i3 terminals.
Pros: worked perfectly, plug and play

BMW
So now I will only use Energizer and Sanyo/Panasonic Eneloop bateries I use these rechargable ones in more expensive devices as they do not leek but have had great success with energizer and their max alkaline bateries both stored and in devices and none have leaked.
Pros: no leaks, great success
Regardless, while that’s sorta old for a battery, I have OEM BMW batteries going on 12 years with 89% charge capacity.
Pros: long lasting, high charge capacity
Cons: sorta old
Vehicle:
BMW
I have a snap-on torque wrench and duracell keeps doing that, I switched over to energizer and it stopped.
Pros: stopped the issue
Cons: duracell keeps doing that
These were very very well made batteries. They also used to be insanely expensive. Now, BMW knows the game and offers a 2 year warranty, which is pretty low for batteries, but they are very competitively priced.
Pros: well made batteries
Cons: short warranty
Vehicle:
BMW
Ich fahre im Moment nen BMW i3 von 2015 mit nur rund 15 kWh Batteriekapazität und knapp 80k km runter. Da die eh so klein ist und das Auto auch kein großartiges Lademanagement hat, knall ich (und wahrscheinlich alle Vorbesitzer auch) die Batterie eigentlich so gut wie immer auf 100%, was man ja eigentlich vermeiden soll. Das Auto liegt über den Daumen gepeilt ca. 10-15% (eher 10) unter den Angaben, die man so im Netz findet.
Pros: robuste Batterie
Cons: 10-15% Reichweitenverlust
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 80000 km
my bmw would say this, a year after having a new oem batt installed, and only in the winter, dealer couldn't find the problem, so I traded it in for another subaru because parasitic draws are the last thing you want in a german car
Cons: problem persisted, dealer couldn't fix, parasitic draws
