Rechargeables do. Sometimes even well-tended ones do, due to an unexplained and intermittent fault
in the charger. In that case, I just cycle home cautiously. In fact a rear light is not a legal
requirement here (in Japan) and so long as I am prepared to give way to people who do not see me
from the front, I don't see why it should be much of a problem.
