OK - I will state the obvious again.

a) ALL batteries leak to some extent. Irrespective of brand or use.
b) What is important is what are the options WHEN (not IF) they leak.
c) A manufacturer which will stand behind their product and make the user whole is very nearly infinitely better than one that will not.
d) Let that distinction be the driver of whatever brand is chosen.
