I use Rayovac, but Lithium Ion Energizers are best IMO. I don't care for NiMH batteries because they self drain so they don't last for long periods of time even when not in use.
BTW Chasing Game is a great website that I think anybody interested in commercial trail cams should check out. Their testing and impartial reviews can really help you decide what to buy. If you have any questions they also have a good forum where you can get the answers you need.

Re: Trail camera batteries?
Most may already know about these but I use the smaller sealed 12V batteries. I got them for 35 bucks with case. Now there a little more but they last for almost a month. If your setting out a lot of cameras, or going long distances I can see how the extra stuff would be a problem. I like the fact that I know camera is working rather than dead. Plus I won't go in and look for weeks at a time.

Re: Trail camera batteries?
I usually buy Duracell batteries. Most of my cameras are DLC Covert. I havent found a need for lithium batteries with them.
