ahah, i guess i can't say it is my poor english fault this time!
i must admit in shame i didn't know alkaline was synonimum with basic, i
thought it was a type of chemical mixture used in certain batteries! Let's
have one more read to that old physics book.

So i added acid to acid to my poor synth. Strangely the battery was still
able to hold the memory backed up, and board traces fortunately seem intact.

As for what concerns the diagrams i own them, but they are renomed for being
a total mess, I wont ask you to help me this further.
I'll cut and throw away that battery, then i'll apply the bicarbonate treatment.
I'll keep you informed, thanks Brian for your precious help, and see you
all!
