I have a flashlight that leaked battery acid. Is there any way to
dissolve this acid or just scrape it off as best I can.
mild solution of baking soda will dissolve it. you can also use
ammonia
My description was wrong the flashlight is a Maglite LED three cell
with Duracell alkaline batteries. Thanks for all who replied for your
help.
I had the same problem with a 3 D cell capacity Maglight. I filled it
with white vinegar. You can see the bubbling as the vinegar neutralizes
the acid.
With alkaline batteries?
