In particular, batteries are still required for remotes, gamepads and some other equipment. That is why it is important to know which manufacturers of such batteries are the best.

The best Russian battery companies

Our selection starts with domestic companies. Even in the USSR, there were several manufacturers of different batteries. However, those enterprises for the most part are a thing of the past, as their products could not compete with Western batteries. What can not be said about the product, which is produced by Russian companies now.

Best Young Brand
Country: Russia
Rating (2022): 4.6

3 Photon


The best ratio of price and quality
Country: Russia
Rating (2022): 4.7

The foundation of the enterprise that registered the trademark "Photon" took place in 2011. It quickly became clear that his products would be in high demand. The fact is that at first the Russian battery manufacturer pursued an aggressive pricing policy. Experts assure that many Photon batteries are practically not inferior in quality to Duracel products. And they cost about twice as much! It is not surprising that the inhabitants of our country began to massively install such batteries in their remote controls and other undemanding equipment.

The range of products under this brand is quite wide. Interestingly, the manufacturer does not focus on AA or AAA batteries - they are a little more difficult to find. Batteries CR2025 and CR2032 are much more massive. It is possible that this is due to the gradual spread of bicycle lights, doorbells, very thin remote controls and other things that require just such batteries. The manufacturer just noticed this trend in time.

2 ROBITON

The best foreign battery companies

Many Western brands under which various batteries are produced are already well known to our readers. However, we still have no right not to mention them in this rating.

5 Samsung


Good combination of price and service life
Country: South Korea
Rating (2022): 4.5

Sometimes Samsung even produces products that you do not expect to see under this brand at all. For example, did you know that Samsung film was once on sale? In fact, it was only branded, and the release was arranged by a third-party plant. Approximately this happens with Samsung Pleomax batteries. However, there is nothing wrong with this. The factories have strict quality control, and the South Korean manufacturer himself regularly checks the products manufactured under his trademark.

In stores, you can also find lithium-ion batteries of the 18650 type. They have the corresponding logo only on the box. The case of such batteries usually has only a stamp. Therefore, many people think that in fact this product has nothing to do with Samsung. But it's not. It’s just that South Koreans order such batteries primarily not for retail sale, but for deliveries, for example, to manufacturers of electric scooters. For them, a colorful body is meaningless, it's a waste of money. Therefore, you can easily make a purchase.It will also please you with a relatively low price. But still, be guided by the reviews - some batteries still do not live up to expectations, offering less capacity or not very high voltage.
