Leaking eneloop battery

[dc10000]

Have you all encountered before? I thought rechargeable batteries do not leak.

I used 3 of them in a clock. 1 x GP and 2 x Eneloop. One of the eneloop leaking and is a clear liquid.

What device you use the batteries for?

Edit: I just read your post again that it's a clock. I read somewhere long time ago that clocks should use normal battery rather than rechargeable. Can't remember the reason.​

Also one shouldn't use different brands of NiMh batteries in the same device.​

You got overcharge or overdischarge? What charger you using?
Either that or you got fake Eneloop?

low power low voltage items like clock and remote tiagong better to use non-alkaline like carbon-zinc battery.
