I happened to notice that the last few expensive flashlights I bought all had Energizer (the pink bunny) batteries, not Duracell (the copper top).
Reading a bit on the web seems to indicate that Duracell are noted for leaking and Energizer are far less prone to this. Having lost several Maglites to leaking Duracells, I've now switched over and use Energizer exclusively.
Time will tell if I notice any difference but I know it can't be any worse than the Duracells.
In fact, Energizer guarantees to repair or replace any device damaged by leakage from their batteries. Full text here...
