Pros: Costs as much as one or two at local shop and you get 5pcs.
5 for the price of 2 (locally)
Fits a lot of specialized car / home security system remotes.
Cons: There are better (longer lasting brands)
Packaging hard to open
Other Thoughts: Bought this for a remote for my home security system and it fits even though the battery previously in there was a smaller one (in size)
Some people reported having one dud in the pack but mine all worked right out of the pack.
Bottomline: Great value, good product!
Excellent Price

Pros: Great price, equivalents upwards of 5-6 dollars just for one.
Cons: Can't think of any, these are just batteries. I think maybe the life of the battery may be a bit shorter than others, but I couldn't really tell.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: I have a garage remote that uses 23A, and for some strange reason it runs out like almost every 2 months, whereas other similar remotes lasts for way longer. I've tried Duracell, Energizer, Rat Shack, still does the same, and it's draining my money. These ones run about the same lengeth, but much easier on my wallet.
Reputable brand, rock bottom price

Pros: -Cheap
-Good brand
Cons: -Packaging is in Chinese
Other Thoughts: Bought 15 of these for my multimeter for what 2 would cost at Radio Shack. These aren't those no name green batteries, they are a major Chinese brand. They may not last as long as other brands, only time will tell. At this price, I don't really care, $0.80 beats $5 hands down
Bottomline: Get these if you have anything that uses type 23 batteries. They are very expensive since they are a specialty battery that you usually only need one of at any given time.
Good price

Pros: Good price for a 5-pack. The local superstores will have only one of these batteries for higher price than this 5-pack.
Cons: Can DX have smaller packs? I don't think any normal household need more than 2 (probably 1) of 23A batteries at the same time.
Other Thoughts: I order these 23A batteries because I forgot to turn off my multimeter and it drained out its battery. 5 batteries is far more than enough for my use. Probably I now get the excuse to forget turning off my multimeter for 4 times more.
Bottomline: Why not order here and keep away from being ripped off? The non-stardard-sized batteries are way way overpriced in the stores.
