I thought It might be interesting for some of you, Czech technician Jiri Bekr performed a thorough test of almost 200 AA-size batteries with data available in spreadsheets. These included primary non-rechargeable types - alkaline, zinc chloride, lithium and also rechargeable types - NiMh, Li-Ion (standard or USB types) and NiZn.
Please note most are of central Europe distribution, so I assume there could be totally different batches of the same model for other markets (some of them may be global though.. aliexpress, amazon, hard to guess).
all spreadsheets (google drive)
youtube video: "MEGATEST - 196 types of AA batteries thoroughly tested"
Later he performed a test of rechargeability of alkaline batteries, in which he also provided results of encapsulation, ie. which brands/models leaked.
