Leak-prone batteries
on August 1, 2016

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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Batteries burn nicely finished wood when they leak
on August 5, 2016
Posted by: Firvo
Two times now I have uncluttered my wife's beautiful maple hutch to find leaking batteries that had been set aside and underneath, in the shape of the batteries, the finish burned off. Now we don't monkey around, even partially dispensed batteries go in the trash. Don't know why they are always Duracell but it seems to be the case. Picture shows damage to hutch and a bin of partially dispensed batteries that were stored for future use. Note the brand and the fact that virtually all of them have leaked. I do not experience this with other batteries, even store brands. Time to remove all Duracell batteries and move to Energizer.

Leaking batteries.
on November 10, 2016

from Stony Mountain, MB, Canada
In an emergency flashlight for 1 year and has not been used, date 2025. Leaked and destroyed the flashlight. In my Philips transistor radio (50 years old) for less than a year, date Dec 2022 and leaked so bad that I almost cried. I have never had batteries leak in it ever. I used to always trust Duracell. I will never ever buy your junk batteries again. I will likely never hear from you about this, sad.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I can't count how many times these things have leaked or swelled up, even while in the package well before expiration date.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not Worth the Extra Cost

A 9V Coppertop Duracell battery touted to last 5 years and placed in my smoke alarm, was dead within a year. Supposedly good until 2020, dead in 2017.
