[pct-l] Battery life

[Tortoise]

Agreed but not the whole story. According to the magazine, Energizer 
_Advanced_ lasted for 809 shots (photos in CU's tests), the Energfzer 
_Ultimate_ only 470 shots and costs more; and the best alkaline was 
Duracell Copper Top at 223. The Duracell _Ultra Advanced_ took 260 but 
costs a lot more so the coast of use is higher.
