Shag Factory LR44 Batteries (10 Pack)

Bargain, baby

I have a couple of little bullets that use LR44s, and so they tend to get used in bursts, promptly being stored at the back of the drawer until I can be bothered getting another set of batteries several months later. And, given the ones I have drain three of them dry in ~30 minutes of play. I frequently find it not worth the effort to fuel them at all, much as I adore them.

This pack is definitely the best value of the LR44 packs on sale on Lovehoney. At 10 batteries per pack it's the largest, and at just under 50p per battery, it also works out to be the cheapest per unit. My only quarrel with this bulkage is that all the LR44-powered bullets I've used require three at a time, meaning I wind up with two floating batteries until I get another pack. Now that I've verified that they're worth buying I'll probably get the packs in multiples of three to negate that.

The batteries themselves are as good as any of the other LR44s on sale here, I've never had anything last longer than ~30 minutes with the bullets I have, and these meet that target square on, so if there's a better battery out there, I haven't found it yet. They give full power for a decent lifespan. No way to fault them on quality there!

While the packaging is fun and funky, I do think it's a little garish for my taste. It does mean I have to hide them away rather than leave them in my family battery drawer, but I suppose that's a minor inconvenience. On the plus side, the packaging is impressively robust, and not a single one has popped out without my assistance. As someone who often finds herself screaming at a drawer full of batteries, some drained, some half-used, and some new, with no way to tell the difference, I really do appreciate the benefits of a hard-wearing package.

All in all, a solid buy, and well worth squirreling away to keep those battery-hungry bullets well fed.

Nicely presented pack of batteries from Shag Factory

I've not needed to use any of the batteries within this pack yet, but the Shag Factory pack of batteries is really nicely presented, the imagery on the packet is really fun and what you would expect from a brand called Shag Factory - fun, retro and groovy! Very Austin Powers!

If you were giving someone a sex toy as a gift and were supplying batteries with that gift, this would be a nice pack to give them as it's much prettier and more fun than other brands, and it's very obviously designed for use with sex toys!

Can't comment on the battery life yet, but I've no reason to suspect they wont work well, and otherwise it's a great product!

Good value

This is excellent value for the LR44 batteries that a lot of our sex toys take, which do last a while but, due to the length we use these toys for at a time, we are frequent battery changers.

This works out at 50p a battery, which you can't complain about, and they do last quite a long time!

Also, you don't want to get caught short with no juice and no replacement batteries - if you have toys that take these, buy them. :)
