For years now, I have purchased all my alkaline batteries from one supplier, and it’s been a while since I checked prices. So here’s how I checked my prices. I twittered. I tweeted a question “Who do you use for battery supply?” Within half an hour I heard from several tech directors across the country. I double-check what they said, and indeed, everyone seemed to be in agreement. In fact, the responses were 100% in recommending the same company. Sure made my decision easy. The company? Medic Battery.

I think you just gave the best reason for twittering.
I don’t care if someone is having the best cup of coffee 400 miles away.
Yeah, it’s funny to read a techie is going to strangle a worship leader.
But asking a question…that’s perfect.

I believe I can beat Medic Battery. Try http://www.batterywarehousedirect.com
I only compared the 9 volt Procells and they beat Medic. It also seems their price breaks are at lower quantities as well. They also have a $4.95 flat rate shipping. I have been using them for years.

Medic Batteries has always served us well! I found them by accident several years ago – you just can’t beat the ease of use on the site.
Agreed. Twitter is a great source for seeing what’s going on – but being a newbie myself, I am just starting to build my “Following” list. As a Tech Director myself – I’d love some sort of “Directory” of other tech directors out there. I see there’s a few different sources out there for that – but maybe a separate site just for Church uses?
