@LiveLifeJR I don’t advocate it, Joe, but the diaper does indeed last 12 hours. The reason for changing sooner is odor. But on occasion I’ve been out and unable to change due to unexpected delays and have gone as long as 14-15 hours with no leaks.
When you order a case it works out to about $2.50 per diaper. You can start with a package of 10 if you don’t want to initially make a larger investment. The diaper is also available in blue, which may offer you some discretion if your concerned with it showing above your trousers.

The following is just my experience from using the following diapers, as always your mileage may vary!
The MegaMax is an incredible diaper, I think it has the most capacity and it seems to wick fairly well so it doesn't swell up too much in just one place. I have fairly small but frequent voids and it can last me 16 hours easily. However I don't like to push it because wearing any diaper for that long is hard on my skin. The tapes are the best out there (almost too good!) but with the tough plastic landing strip on front you can reposition the tapes many times without ripping the outer plastic sheet.
The BetterDry seems to have about the same massive capacity as the MegaMax but it swells up enormously, especially right in the front, to the point of being very obvious. I don't usually worry about discretion but I do with this one. You can't really reposition the tapes without damaging the outer plastic without using the second chance tapes.
The ComfiDry 24/7's don't have quite as much capacity as the first two but they are very very good and give me the most bang for the buck. Tapes are the same as BetterDry and I can get 12 hours out of these easily if I want to. This is my go-to super premium diaper.
Abena L4's are good but not really in the same league as the first three. Same tape issue as Betterdry and ComfiDry and about 60+% of the capacity as those two. The only problem I have with these is odor control. After about 8 hours they have a very distinct odor that starts to become obvious so I usually change them before that.
BTW...I heard there are some really good ABDL diapers out there but I've never tried any of them so I can't give reliable opinions about any of them. You're on your own there if you don't mind the prints!

This is the plastic back L4 that has no extra wing up front... And the front is thinner than the back by quite a bit..
I hope this is what they are planning on doing to the L4'S because I don't know if the other brands are in my budget now that I am going to be on full disability.

@Padded53 Hello, Other diapers I have tried that are plain white are the Rearz inspire in control. These are all plain white and have a very large capacity, but are a bit pricey.
I normally use the abena M4's but decided to change over to BetterDry because of the changes they made to the abenas. They do swell quite a bit but work very well capacitywise. There ia another brand out there that is called Seni super, it is a cloth backed diaper from Poland that does a decent job also, but dont recommend for side sleepers as they tend to leak, hope this helps in any way.
