I've bought Duracell AA alkalines that leaked withing a week or three
after installation. No leaks in the package seen, although I'm not
surprised.
IME: They're no less likely to leak than cheap brands if left in equipment
for a long time.
The real disappointment is they don't last significantly longer than the
pack of 6 Kodak Extralife from the £ store.
