Which battery is the best industrial or lithium?
This is highly subjective. As someone else has mentioned the industrial batteries are just rebranded alkaline batteries for institutions. Lithium batteries are a bit confusing though; there are DISPOSABLE lithium batteries for sale now that are quite expensive. They are suitable for some high-drain type devices like digital cameras but the extra cost might not be worth it for some. They are also a bit better for cold weather situations since they will hold their voltage longer at colder temps. The rechargeable type of Lithium batteries are called Lithium-Ion batteries. These can be found in standard sizes, bu they still are not overly common yet and are also expensive. NiMH rechargeable batteris are more common and likely more economical. I agree that a rechargeable battery is better for the environment and cheaper to operatate in the long term.
