Where the top copper plate is there's a silver screw thing. I just put batteries in and when inserting 2nd battery I got a spark where the battery touched silver screw bit


I WILL NOT BE USING IT at mO DUE TO THAT

It`s looking pretty conclusive that I got one where the label IS on the wrong way round, that matches up with other pics on FT etc

If you take the black cover off you can withdraw the plate easily, just take the screw out, mine wasnt fixed tight anyway

EDIT .............. or take a few mm off the bottom of the screw

The "nipples" on the plate are only about a mm, I only have flat top batts so not always making contact. Best suited to nipple top batts.

Was offered a store credit or a new one shipped, so took the store credit, happy enough with that. It will get used lol.
