| 1412855 | 2015-12-28 03:25:00 | Just found another one: DSE Alkaline, 'use by' date 20 July 2016, was in a small bedside alarm clock (alarm never used) voltage reading 0.125 volts. Fortunately the leaking contents do not corrode all contact metals so this one was easy to clean up. Clock is now powered by Varta! It now seems essential that I should go through all of my installed DSE batteries checking for leaks, so I'm preparing a dossier listing every battery failure and I intend to approach DSE for compensation. I might do likewise for Jaycar as well, but I don't have too much evidence for them as I'm fairly sure that it is only their 9 volt cells that have given problems. Cheers Billy 8-{) |
