These really held up well! Long life. I use them in my flashlights and game camera. They will last almost a year in the game camera. Packaging sucked! Opened envelope that contained 2 boxes of "C" sized batteries, 12 each box, and the boxes literally fell apart.?Amazon shipped me 10 little lr44 batteries (watch batteries)on the same order but felt these that weighed 2oz needed to be put in a box, with air pouches, and taped to inside bottom of box! Seriously? I'm hoping now that each employee is making $15/hr or more that a little common sense and care will start being used in packaging and shipping our items. That's all I'm asking. Tired of having to send defective and damaged orders back ,especially since now orders are taking a week or more sometimes even as a Prime member. ?quick delivery, packaged securely-batteries were not rolling around -very satisfiedI bought these for my Bethlehem window candles and so far so good. I will update when I see how long they last for me. My window candles are on a timer. I’m sure that they will do well but I will get back with you later.Pro cells last long and are durable through storm seasons.Lasted longer than any C battery I have ever purchased. Some were used in cold temperatures in the NE throughout winter months.Didn’t last as long as last year.Update edit: 20 Feb 2017 - My Wife just asked me to get 6 new C batteries for her portable radio/CD player from the storage area - she also told me (unsolicited) that she felt the Procells lasted much longer than the standard Duracell Alkalines.We had good experience with the double A's and triple A's so when out stock of C size batteries was getting low we researched and found the Procell's were again the best price and value for the money, especially when purchased thru our Amazon Prime account.In my other reviews I have stated that Duracell batteries have always provided us with great service and in the decades we have used them, we have never had a single one leak either in the device we used it or in the packaging, unlike many of the non-brand name, generic cheaper batteries which we now know better than to stray from Duracell again.Not sure if my next order will be 'C' batteries or - as the image shows, AAA batteries.These last as long as any other that I have used previously in the motion lights on my hallway stairs.I have not seen any corrosion around the ends (from leaking).UPDATE: Not anything on the battery function, but the re-order never arrived. It seems the seller 'gave' them to Amazon who 'lost' them - somewhere, somehow - when they were received by USPS. I have gotten no explanation of why or how the order could not be delivered - hi-jacked USPS truck, crashed truck, burned USPS depot, stolen, mis-delivered, hurricane. At least my money is being put back into my account a week after I had ordered these batteries. I'll get some at Costco - Duracells.
