I recently found a flashlight that was ruined due to the batteries leaking and eating away the insides of a flashlight. I was wanting to know why this happens? Also, is it a crap shoot (in other words, one never knows if/when it will happen, it just does, without warning)? What can I do to keep this from happening, other than putting batteries in a flashlight when I intend to actually use it, otherwise, keep the batteries out?
Thanks for the information.
