Re: Unusual PP3 Battery failure.
It's quite worrying to see this happen and could easily cause injury including eye damage. I suppose an internal short circuit is occuring leading to rupture of the case.
It makes you wonder if these batteries have undergone thorough safety testing, I very much doubt it.
I assume this type of failure on PP3s is confined to alkalines as opposed to zinc chloride types.
What makes of PP3 have failed in this manner?
