The Smell of Molten Projects in the Morning

Bosch Laser Rangefinder Corrosion

A few days after using my Bosch GLR225 Laser Rangefinder, it wouldn’t light up.

This came as no surprise:

 

Bosch GLR225 battery contact - corrosion
Bosch GLR225 battery contact – corrosion

Some vinegar, a bit of scrubbing, some rinsing, and it’s all good:

Bosch GLR225 battery contact - cleaned
Bosch GLR225 battery contact – cleaned

The OEM batteries seem to have survived nigh onto four years, so I guess I can’t complain.

Mutter & similar remarks.
