Question about cordless phone battery

[mm]

I don't know the details here, but there is lots of plating out there, even on very cheap stuff. I noticed when some batteries leaked.

We're talking about the contacts on the *outside* of the phone and on the charging base, not the internal battery contacts. And don't most cordless phones use plugs and pins instead of the ordinary battery contacts?

I wasn't talking about the battery contacts either, but what the leaking battery leaked on. And I'm saying there is lots of plated things. I'm sure it's not limited to in the phone or out of the phone.

I only addressed the topic of plating. But there defintiely are cordless phones batteries that use contacts and not plugs or pins.

What is the point of quibbling about "most" or not when the OP only has one phone and we don't know what kind he has.

[UCLAN]

Sure we do. It's a Northwestern Bell 36007. He stated so in his original post. It uses a 3.6 volt NiCD cell and a plug/pin connection.

Oh. I forgot about that because I don't keep track of such phones, or look them up.
