[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 507607, member: 12496"] It would seem hard to believe though, but when it happens, they'll know, at least eventually. I've counted about 24 alkaline cells in use here, clocks, LCD thermometers, programmable thermostat, AC radio and blood pressure machine for backup, TV remotes, mouse, radio triggers, etc, etc. I've used Duracells in all of them, Coppertops and Procells. So I've been switching out the Duracells with Amazons, and so far, only found two more with corrosion starting. I'm not sure yet, but the Coppertops seem terrible, but I have not seen bad Procells yet. They seem normal, but are fairly new though. I don't know if any actual difference, but the coppertops have a 10 year guarantee vs 7 years for Procells. It does seem a good plan to inspect our alkalines now and then, before waiting too long.
