HAH...Ureka.... or WHATEVER
A helmet sold by Rural King for $5 more than the Harbor Fright model has REPLACABLE batteries. Still solar powered but the batteries can be replaced. A lot of the cheaper helmets have non-replaceable batteries. Since I will use it maybe once or twice a summer and not at all for six months during the winter, and store it in a cabinet, the batteries would not last that long and the helmet would be a decoration to hang on the wall. And, as somebody mentioned above, I will take the batteries out after each use and store them in a sandwich bag inside the 3-gallon bag I will store the helmet in. So, no corrosion, no dust, and no spiders.
Today I have learned something!!
And since I have lost the center of vision in one eye I have become very careful with anything to do with my eyes.
Thanks again.
