Batteries - lots of batteries

I can't believe how many batteries that people at my work throw away throughout the year. I can only assume they don't bother testing all the batteries in their devices. If the device doesn't work then they just toss all the batteries. One battery could cause the device to go off. The first picture shows them all and the box that I set a side for proper battery disposal for everyone.

The second and third picture just show a bit of a closeup of the different brands - no biggy.

The fourth picture consists of mostly AAA batteries which I really don't have much use for back home except in remote controls. It also shows the rechargeables (AA and AAA) that I am going to try to bring back to life using that MH-C9000 charger. A few of them still show full charge. I have a pair of Energizers and a pair of Duracells already going through a break-in charge.

The fifth picture is my old school tester.

All these batteries (plus the small bin I have set aside back home from the previous year of battery testing definitely will keep me from buying any new ones for a while. I am still going to try those Eneloop AA batteries I ordered though to see if they are as good as people say. I also still have those Imedions (4x AA) that came with the unit. I'll be using most of these batteries with my metal detector this year to see how this all plays out. I am curious on how long they will last me - together in sets of 4 (keeping the brands the same just to avoid problems).
