Dravenae:
I also heard a white vinegar and water mix works pretty well. Apparently there's some science behind it. If you did that though definitely clean it with alcohol after and maybe a spot of WD40 to prevent further corrosion. I know some vinegars have sodium in them, not sure about white vinegar.
wiggy:
Vinegar = acid
Alkaline = base

They interact and the battery "acid" dissolves ;) (even though it's a base, not an acid)

It Worked. It Worked. It Worked.   ;D



Thanks to everyone.
Dravenae:
Awesome sauce!
wiggy:
Awesome, congrats! 

Now just come over here and help me cleanup my pile o' crusty portables (many with the same issue).
