I've had alkaline batteries leak. Due to old age, or due to being
recharged. I also had a whole 24 pack of Harbor Freight AA cells leak,
one time. They exchanged them, no questions.

Were the harbour frights alkaline or Manganese Dioxide/ Zinc carbon?

Also, alkalines are NOT RECHARGEABLE, so if you recharge them, all
bets are off.


the HF Thunderbolts are alkalines.
I don't recharge non-rechargeables,never have.
