Re: Leaking alkaline cells

Duracell / Duraleak has been owned by Warren Buffett since 2014, or so. Before that Procter & Gamble made sure the quality went way down. About a year ago, I had enough of seeing damaged appliances, so in a moment of particular annoyance I sent Mr. Buffett a letter asking him to look into it.

The brand¡¯s reputation is in my mind permanently damaged, but I am happy to hear that you see some improvement. The warranty however is useless, no matter how many years they offer. It may still be contingent on ¡°removing batteries from the device when not in use¡±. I agree that the old Duracells from way back were good.
