DURACELL DID IT AGAIN

     Am I the only one that has this problem? Or are there many more of us out there that have had things ruined by duracell batteries leaking in the devices.  I do not know why I keep buying them.  In the past 3 years I have had 5 different devices ruined because of duracell leaks.   YES the company will try to replace the damaged things for you if you call them, BUT why is this happening.   I am always careful where and how I store my unused betteries.   The latest victim is a little led flashlight.   I had just used this thing back in April and it worked fine.   When I picked it up today it would not light , so I opened it to change the batteries.  I was shocked to find 2 of the batteries had leaked so baddly the wrighting on one was rubbed off, and they were stuck to the terminals.  The batteries were dated for Dec 2025 so I do not understand why they leaked. But what really shocked me was what the customer service person told me when I called.  He told me that the batteries will sometimes still work even if the are leaking so I should take them out and check them, and leave them out of the light when I am not using it.   That is a new one on me.
