Re: Is it hopeless? Help needed
I lost my original Q to a swollen battery. Using super glue did not occur to me, maybe that would have worked. I did a lot of googling on ways to solve this problem and did not find any useful answers. Avoid doing anything intrusive to the battery - like drilling a hole in it and trying to set a screw or hook eye to pull it out. (one of the not-useful answers I saw while googling.) Apparently lithium batteries can burst into flames. In my case, I just bought a Q7 which proved to be a much bigger upgrade than expected.

Re: It's about that time, kids
There’s no need for things like PayPal accounts in Europe for person to person payments; we can pay directly and instantly into other people’s accounts with our online banking apps. For commercial transactions the payment providers accept bank cards, and credit cards provide very high levels of protection and chargeback in case of dispute. > On 3 May 2021, at 22:48, jco...@iinet.net.au wrote: > > Bob's issue may be a UK only issue - like Paul I've used PayPal for many > years and never had a problem. > > ohn in Brisbane > > > > -Original Message- > From: Paul Stenquist > Sent: Tuesday, 4 May 2021 6:34 AM > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: Re: It's about that time, kids > > I’ve been using it several times a week for over 10 years.

Re: It's about that time, kids
Well...Paypal has instructions for paying without an account but everything on the page the send you to wants you to download/install their app. However, if Doug could create a "paypal.me" link and post it, anyone going to that link can send him money from several sources including a credit card.

Re: Is it hopeless? Help needed
That only works with a round battery. The nikon probably has a flat battery. Using superglue is difficult because it's a liquid and one drop too much and everything (camera and battery) is glued together.

Glue something to the >battery which allows you to apply force (after the glue hardens, app >24h) and pull the battery out. A swollen battery is end of life so the >glue won't harm it. Someone posted this on a forum somewhere: For removing a stuck (AA) battery - from my camera - this worked like a charm and was least intrusive. I put the camera on it's side so the stuck battery was facing the ceiling and was COMPLETELY LEVEL. I smeared a little super glue onto the top of the stuck battery but not close to the battery's edge!!! I placed a thick metal nut on top of and in the center of the battery. The nut must be smaller than the battery. I added extra super glue into the center region of the metal nut. I let it set until the next day. Then, simply used a wrench on the nut to move it until it was free; then could simply extract the battery. -- Cheers Cotty -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: Is it hopeless? Help needed
A last resort is two component epoxy glue. Glue something to the battery which allows you to apply force (after the glue hardens, app 24h) and pull the battery out. A swollen battery is end of life so the glue won't harm it.

Re: Is it hopeless? Help needed
Thanks, Mike Before I took it somewhere I wanted a couple of opinions from voices I trust - my tried and true repair place near me closed , where there were still guys that knew me going back a few years. So I'll take a "maybe" - . I had the perfect watchmaker guy but his shop near me.is gone.. though I may be able to find him. ann On 5/3/2021 2:53 AM, mike wilson wrote: The battery _might_ have just swollen but not leaked.
