Well, I took it apart, removed the battery and cleaned the cpu pins and socket.  I used lemon juice as well to get rid of the acid.  It still doesn't work...


You used a ph 2.3 acid to clean up acid damage?

Haven't you learned yet?


What, that alkalines (above ph7) neutralize acid (unless the battery was an alkaline)?

What chemistry classes did you attend?

(I was trying to make the point humourously that it wasn't acid being cleaned up)

That acid battery bull begins to irritate gradually - the only acid batteries an ordinary consumer meets are lead batteries in a car/motorcycle/whatever vehicle. All the others are alkaline by nature.


I'll leave the humour to the experts in future.  ;)
