The WORST Game Gear Corrosion Ever
About this video
How bad can battery terminal corrosion get on a Game Gear? This one came from an online listing that showed damage, and the maker asks viewers for ideas on cleaning it.
Good to know: Leaked battery residue is corrosive, so handle the damaged terminals with care. Any solvent used to clean them is flammable and needs ventilation.
Why watch it
The Game Gear's battery terminals looked damaged in the listing photos, and the maker expected light corrosion before finding something far worse.
