Good idea Jerry.  I did just that and found that the AA Lithium  
nonrechargeable batteries have a Lithiul/Iron Disulfide chemistry and  
are listed as 1.5 volts, not the 1.2 volts it says on the package.   
What was interesting is that they are rated at just over 3000 mah at  
a discharge rate of 25 ma and just under 3000 mah at a 1 amp  
discharge rate at room temperature.  What is really surprising is  
that they  are rated at about 4300 mah at a discharge rate of 25 ma  
and just under 3000 mah at  a 1 amp discharge rate at 0 degrees C and  
about 4400 mah at a discharge rate of 25 ma and about 3800 mah at  a  
1 amp discharge rate at 21 degrees C.

Go to http://data.energizer.com/PDFs/l91.pdf and check it out for  
yourself.
