Default Re: Leaking batteries. A reminder, a warning.

What annoys me is that manufacturers of equipment do not seem to make much effort to make their battery compartments cope with the problem. Some are definitely better than others. It would be good if the battery box was sealed to protect the device and removable for easy cleaning, and made from materials such that the metal would be OK and a quick soak to dissolve the mess would get it back into use.

Actually I did have one thing that was like that, so it can be done.
