Clean the contacts in the battery compartment with a clean, dry cloth or clean, dry, non-abrasive brush (like a toothbrush). If further cleaning is needed, apply a small amount of vinegar to a clean cloth, and gently rub the contacts. The acid from the vinegar will neutralize th...

I soaked it in baking soda and water to neutralize the acid. Then used vinegar and baking soda to help break the corrosion sealing the battery to the maglite body. Rinsed thoroughly then used canola oil to get in between the battery and the body. All these steps were done over 48 hours....
Remove the old batteries from the hard case spotlight's battery compartment. Take note of the orientation of the batteries in relation to positive and negative polarity. Check for any corrosion of the battery terminals and clean with a small amount of vinegar, if necessary. Allow vinegar to air...
If the robot isn't tethered to a power source with a cable, it needs an onboard battery. Because most robots weigh hundreds of pounds (over 800 pounds for some models), they need batteries that can deliver significant levels of power for several hours at a time. For this reason, police...
The copper wire from my old battery cable has a blue/green halo around it, possibly from battery acid. Few figures were made from this wire, but it's an interesting side effect that I may try more of. The figures that I dipped in the ceramic pigment have an attractive patina. The iri...
This is simpler, and allows you to plug the furnace into a backup power source (generator or large battery) to restore heating in the event of a power failure. Condensate (aka dripping water): When an efficient furnace runs, it condenses some water out of the hot combustion gases. This ...
