Are you referring to Duracell here?

I used to buy them, because that's what BJ's stocked. I have since stopped.

I have had multiple flash lights, remote controls, kids toys destroyed by Duracells. Multiple sizes, multiple grades, didn't matter. I had a duracell specialty battery for a camera go bad.

They all leaked. I stopped buying them about a year ago. They don't go bad in the package, they go bad in the device. I had to junk quite a few cheapo flashlights because the batteries swelled and I couldn't get them out. The maglites where they leaked I did spend quite a bit of time and effort getting the stuck batteries out.

The company I work for buys a ton of Duracells from staples and I've seen the same issues here going on for at least 10 years.
