I have lost another Mag AA flashlight to leaking batteries! I will never purchase another duracell battery!!! These batteries have cost me over $100 in lost flashlights and clocks over the last 5 or so years! I have used cheap batteries and not had this problem, I am now going to start using Ni-Zn rechargeable batteries for these items.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I've lost two LED flashlights to these batteries and now my FM transmitter for the car. An unused four pack even leaked in the box. On top of that two C-Cells leaked in an antique View-Master and ruined that on me. Why haven't I learned my lesson yet?

My current toll of ruined devices due to leakage now stands at 1 AA Mag-lite flashlight, 2 Seiko AA battery-powered alarm clocks, 1 Brother AA-powered label maker, and 1 wall heating thermostat. I really can't recommend these batteries.

Being a grandparent I have purchased countless Duracell AA and AAA batteries over the years mostly from Costco for the grand kids and their toys! In the last 5-6 years I've noticed that these batteries are having a leaking issue and it's getting worse. At first it was just one or two here and there and the problem was tolerable but lately I'm have to replace clock mechanisms, PC mouse, flashlights etc. on a more frequent basis. I checked a small sample of all the dead batteries I'm going to recycle and about 10%-15% of the ones I have are leaking. And looking at your own reviews from others it seems in the ball park. PLEASE FIX THIS OR I'LL BE FORCED TO GO BACK TO EVERYREADY!! THANKS!

Pulled this out of my office desk drawer, and was surprised by the mess inside.

I'm a Grandpa with 11 grands that are always needing batteries. Over the years I've learned through good and not-so-good experiences that cheap batteries are no bargain and Duracells seem to last "forever" on the shelf, whether in storage prior to use or after a toy or appliance has been energized. Yes, I've had a few leaks over the years but I can attest that the Duracell people are the quickest and easiest to get things rectified!!! They have my vote .... I'll continue purchasing Duracells!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I replaced the batteries in my Tascam DR-05 about a year ago. The recorder is only about 2 years old and I don't use it very often. I was going to use it yesterday and it wouldn't power up. The batteries had started to leak. The date on the batteries was March 2020. I replaced the batteries with 2 new Duracell and it still won't work.
