I stopped using Duracell years ago.

Last year I purchased Energizer Lithium AA batteries from Costco. The women at the register asked if they leak like the Duracell batteries. I replied hopefully no. So far so good.

I've but the Energizer Lithium batteries in all of my test equipment.

Will have to replace the contacts as they are fairly well eaten. Had a problem with them years ago and stopped using them. Heard that they had gotten better, so got some at COSCO and now wish I hadn’t. Back to Eveready or Energizers I guess. Just thought I should let you all know.
