Thread: some more important facts about battery leak
Tiago 19:01 31st March 2011
We talked about battery leak some time ago, i put a post about my A501 ram expantion.

Some people told me to treat the PCB with lemon juice, and that's correct, but,
yesterday i start thinking a bit about it, because a lot of people say "the battery had a leak, and there is acid in my card" .... acid? and we put lemon juice?????? No, the question is there are Alkanile batteries and Acid Batetries.

Alkanile batteries leak (amiga) you work with lemon juice or vinager to neutralize the alkaline base
Acid Batetries leak you work with Baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) to neutralize the acid base

correct this info if i am wrong... but i think it is like this.

So, if you ever have a battery leak, first check what type it is !!!
