QUESTION 1: I have several devices that have battery (alkaline AA or AAA) contacts that regularly get resistive. Opening the device and spinning the batteries usually solves it but only for a day or so.
What is available to coat the device contacts to prevent the constant opening and battery spinning ?
These contacts are usually way down inside the device and are not all that easy to get to.
QUESTION 2: is there a AA and AAA battery that is less likely to leak all over and destroy my devices ? Yeah I know, take the batteries out BUT not always remembered ! So please do not annoy me with that recommendations.
I have brand new, never used AA and AAA batteries that leaked. These are many years before the printed good by date. What total crap. I have no-name batteries that never leak. The one that leak are Duracell and Costco brand name batteries.
QUESTION 3: Now that contacts have been destroyed by leaking batteries, what is the best procedure to get the contacts working again? The contacts are deep inside and I cannot take the device apart. I cannot buy a new device because in some cases they are not available or are now too expensive to buy.
