Corrosion and Leakage
on April 27, 2020

Duracell has always been my choice of battery to use. Unfortunately, in the last 6 months, I have had 2 unopened packages with an expiry date 2025, corrode. At first I thought it was how I stored them in the package. But that isn't the case. I'm keeping them in a cool, dry place. Then, a couple of batteries I just put in a remote a month ago, leaked and there was a white powdery dust inside the cover of my remote, with some kind of leakage down inside where the batteries were. Brand new batteries did this! These aren't small packs of batteries I am buying either. I'm going to a club and buying the large packs of batteries. Guess I'll be switching. I can't have unopened batteries corroding or new batteries leaking.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was a stalwart Duracell customer for decades. Recently, however, I have had so much tool damage from Duracell leaking batteries that I gave up and went with the rabbit competitor, much less leakage. At first I figured it was a bad batch/bad year. Continued problems even sitting in storage, under perfect conditions convinced me otherwise. The company I manage has also switched entirely to different brands, with better results.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Leak and break, they do not last 10 years.

Bought them about six years ago, and left them in my bedroom when I moved out for university. Thought they'd be fine because of the 10 year guarantee. Moved back recently and they have all leaked or broken. Don't pay the extra money for this brand, it's nothing special.

Poor quality product. Leak frequently.

Using Duracell for over 30 years. Was in public safety so lives depended on batteries. During the past few years our devices have been damaged by leaking batteries and actually were still holding power. Flashlight batteries leak during short term storage, and electronics would still work, but the batteries leak. Something changes as this was never an issue years ago. Now it’s almost a guarantee the batteries will leak. AAA are the worst with C right behind. 9 bolt seem to be the only ones that don’t leak.
These batteries don’t last and drain SO quickly!! I bought a 6 pack of AAA batteries at the beginning of February of this year for my food scale. & here I am in April and have gone through all 6 of these batteries! Now, for something that is only being used (at best) just a couple minutes a day why would I have to change the batteries 3 different times? Really disappointed! How is it supposed to last 10 years if it doesn’t even last 3 months?
I don’t know what happened to you Duracell. You used to be my go-to for all of my battery needs. But situations like this keep happening more and more frequently and i don’t see the point in wasting my money like this anymore. Going to try my luck with Energizer!
