I am an absolute fan of Duracell alkaline batteries over all other
alkalines.  I have just found yet another set of Energizers leaking (this
time in my light box).  The only time Duracells have let me down was in a
little bit of corrosion in a Maglite AA.   I have another make of small
torch (flashlight) in my flying suit which I use for night flying (in case
of electrical failure or to check the gauges on the outside of the aircraft
in the dark prior to strapping-in) and the batteries have lasted at least 3
years.

Flash guns (T32) work beautifully with Duracells and my Palm Pilot likewise.

Coppertops rule OK ;-)
