Another epoch bites the dust, they almost all die from battery corrosion

Yeah thats one of the main problems this had a new battery though before leaking and still went faulty few months after

Ah could the old battery of leaked a bit before battery replacement? I think even if they leak a bit and get replaced that acid that leaks out can carry on eating traces Have you got any higher res images on the front/back can usually see where the traces have been eaten away.

Yeah its a weird one i know though the old battery was okay it was just replaced anyway
Heres the proper pics i always forget you can upload proper ones on here.. i can take some more tomorrow

Usually find the batteries corrode and eat the tracks direcly underneath... I suspect the battery was replaced, however the corrosion wasnt fixed before replaceing, so the corrosion just kept eating.

Am tempted, just to see if i can ressurect it, however I have nothing to test it on
