Mineral Oil In Batteries - My Update

About a year ago it was time for new batteries. The old ones had served us well with almost 9 years of use but their time had passed.

While cleaning up the battery bay I decided on this set of batteries I'd try the mineral oil trick/recommendation.

It's been almost a year and all I can say is wow - it works. The batteries seem to perform well and take a look at the battery bay - needless to say I'd recommend it and we'd do it again;


  • How much mineral oil in each cell? Will be checking batteries today or tomorrow getting ready for holiday.

    For those of us who haven't been active on here for the last 15 years......please explain what you DO with the mineral oil.
