Always remove batteries from A2000/3000/4000?

Do you *always* need to remove those standard cylinder batteries, even if they aren't leaking and look fine?  (i.e. Is it always just a matter of time before damage is done?)

Yes, you should remove it. They will probably leak eventually.

Agree.

I've opened far more Amigas that had battery damage than ones that didn't!

Who really cares what time it is, anyway?
