Yes, that is correct. The battery in question
is a carbon zinc D cell, worth about 35 cents.
It will self discharge in about a year, and
then I can put it in the trash without getting
any use out of it.

This is unusual. With the usage time you got, I assume it's an LED
torch. D cells haven't been around for ages. LED torches tend to take
AA or the Lithium Ion equivalent. Is this a home made torch or a
conversion?


Please read some of my other posts, under
similar subject lines. I've explained all
this. And I thought clearly so.

D cells have been around for at least 60 years.
I have a flashlight "torch" that belonged to my
great grand father, takes two D cells.
