RE: OT Most likely cause of my Ebow casing degradation

I've cleaned it all up and reassembled.  Hopefully it will work .

Interesting. Thanks for the update.  I'll keep an eye on the new battery.

Battery leaks can indeed be a bear...

Mike,
I doubt very much it's your fault for leaving the ebow on.
When there's no string to activate the ebow uses very little power.
(and ..er..I'm *always* leaving it on...it never overheats)

I reckon you just got a bad battery leak...unlucky.
