Did you check the voltage regulator? As the apperance my change from Model to Model, the voltage regulator connects to your aletrnator directly. I believe the regulator tells the alternato exactly how much power is needed to safely operate the vehicle. I had same prob with my 77 mustang II. Swollen battery, rotten eggs, and too much power.. Replaced the battery and voltage regulator and my problems were gone. Hope this helps.

The battery on my aurora drains really quick when i turn on anything electrical how do i fix it?
You either have a weak battery that needs replacement or you alternator is defective. Start the engine and check the voltage at the battery with a volt meter. It should read from 13.5-16 volts. Anything less and the alternator needs replacing. If it is reading within that range the battery is defective. Another possibility is a defective battery cable that is swollen or frayed.

Where do you replace the battery in a Sony DVP-FX730 player?
The battery is a 7.4 volt 3200 milliAmpereHour 23.68 Watthour lithium-polymer battery. Remove the 10 screws on the underside of the unit and lift up the keypad/cover to reveal the battery. The battery is adhered with double stick tape so use a thin plastic scraper to remove the battery from the compartment.

What are the effects of battery acid on the body?
I removed some old double-A Panasonic batteries from an old device and the fluid leaked onto my skin. I noticed my skin was wet, and after about 20 seconds I smelled a strong ammonia-like scent. My hand started to feel tight and extremely dry so I washed them immediately. However, here I am a few hours later and my hand feels a bit swollen. Not noticeably swollen b/c others can't tell, but it feels swollen to me.
