[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 507409, member: 12496"] I bought those new Amazon alkalines too, not for the flashes, but for all else. Don't know who makes them, it could be Duracell, they have a "Quantum" version now too, also supposed to be more resistant to leakage. But the Coppertops have become terrible now, IMO.

Says 55% of leakage is caused by over discharging... I thought that too, dead batteries caused it, but my new batteries in the original package seemed affected too. [/QUOTE]
