I’ve actually had good luck with Duracell, the ones that leaked like hell for me were Costco brand; I threw out a bunch of ‘em!

LOL that’s why I switched to Duracell, I got some of the Bunnies that leaked alsoFor years and years I only ever used Duracell alkaline batteries- lasted for ages, ultra reliable. But over the last couple of years I've had several sets of different sizes that have leaked and corroded in use (although never in storage). Probably an improvement in the design! I've gone back to Energiser. No more problems.
I learned my lesson when I wanted a replacement remote for my old Marantz receiver, cost me $70, due to cheapo batts. toasted it.I buy generic. Because I'm a cheapo. I mean, I have no clue which batteries last the longest. I don't keep a diary. So.....
Really? Dang. I've purchased generic forever it seems. Never had an issue. Other than an occasional battery DOA.I learned my lesson when I wanted a replacement remote for my old Marantz receiver, cost me $70, due to cheapo batts. toasted it.
Pay me now or pay me later I guess.
Hey wait a minute. Doesn't "barely new" equate to "really used"??yup, the Dura..brand
2 AAA in the Marantz remote..
question..can I s... take Leg*l action???
Yes, but are they the Costco branded batts?Hey wait a minute. Doesn't "barely new" equate to "really used"??
Semantics, semantics.
I have had poor results with generic brands but Energizer or Duracell both have a history of working well for me. Unlike J. Pupster I usually buy the copper top mega-packs at COSTCO with no problems.
Nope, as that would fall into the generic house brand that as I said I've had bad luck with. Does COSTCO even make faux-Duracell battery's? I just buy the real Duracell big packs there.Yes, but are they the Costco branded batts?

Now that sounds like an old Saturday Night Live reference to Happy Fun Ball...I read elsewhere do not taunt Bursto for it is both a battery & a laxative.
...is at the asinine annual daylight savings time "spring ahead" switch-over.I have also decided to pick a date and annually replace the batteries in my remotes, etc.
I've had problems lately with leaky Duracell batteries. I guess I'll be switching to the bunny brand.I’ve actually had good luck with Duracell, the ones that leaked like hell for me were Costco brand; I threw out a bunch of ‘em!
