Panasonic EVOLTA AA Batteries are I4U Top 100 Gift Tip #40

Batteries go with Christmas like turkey goes with dressing during the holiday season. The last thing you want on Christmas day is to realize that you didn’t get the batteries needed for the toys and gadget or you bought cheap batteries.

Panasonic is bringing its new EVOLTA batteries to the US just in time for the holidays. The only real bad part is that the batteries are available only in AA size. If you need other size batteries, you are going to have to shop elsewhere.

The new design of the EVOLTA battery makes it last much longer than traditional batteries. Panasonic promises that the average RC car using EVOLTA batteries can travel up to 8.7 miles farther than the same car using other batteries.

For Whom:

EVOLTA batteries are great for anyone and everyone with gadgets or toys that run off AA batteries. The batteries promise much improved run time.

The Good:

• Panasonic promises significant run time increases
• Not much more expensive than other batteries

The Bad:

• Only available in AA size
