This. I'm done with alkalines leaking inside everything.

I use Eneloops and the various no-name knockoffs from Amazon, Tenergy, Apple, etc.

Kirkland Signature have a real leakage problem. One of the very few time a KS product is a bad choice.

Best battery ever, for a day anyway, Larsen-Berra Model 56.

For AA/AAA:

eneloops for rechargeable applications, Energizer Lithium for all the rest.

no worries about losing your device to a leaking alkaline battery with the above.

I prefer the Hillerich & Bradley Louisville Sluggers.

Best battery with a Louisville Slugger, was part of a heated/hated bi-coastal rivalry, was Marichal-Roseboro Model 65.

ALL alkaline batteries are garbage imo...

Duracell USED to be the good stuff, but they are just relabeling the cheap garbage too these days. It's Li or nothing for me now. Haven't bought Alk batts in at least 15 years and don't miss them.

Plus they are so damned toxic not t good thing to throw away...

I'd agree, but all batts are toxic for trash.
He77, everything we make is toxic in one way or another.
