I just put in some Energizer batteries on a brand new Jetbeam BA20 that I received yesterday. Tested it for awhile and then store it for a couple of hours. During the night I opened the flashlight to have a thorough look and noted that one of the battery was practically sizzling inside and oozing with acid! I did what i could but the damage is as you see below. The flashlight still works but it pains me to see the extent of damage on something new.
I tried the baking soda method but it didn't do a thing. Should I leave it as it is? It shouldn't have any bearing on its lifespan right since it's still working? Or do you think it's possible that I could claim a new flashlight from Energizer?
