Hi! Restoration of an old battery-powered lantern. The year of manufacture is 1962. The condition is bad. I bought it at a flea market. The parts are in place, but rusty and dirty. The surprise was the water in the battery compartment.
My first duty was to start disassembling the lantern into details. I cleaned the bolts and screws with a rust remover. I rewired the wire contacts.
I cleaned the inner wall with a solvent and repainted it white.
The surface of the lantern frame was cleaned with sand, primed and painted with paint.
I washed the batteries many times with distilled water. Then I put it on a charge for 8 hours, recharged it with a conventional 9 volt charger at the output.
Next, I collected everything, connected and tested the flashlight. Please do not forget to share this video.
Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!
