Now you're just playing chicken.

Oh, and the thing that holds stuff is spelled VISE.

Excuse me, my dear Mike....

"A vise or vice is a mechanical apparatus used to secure an object to allow work to be performed on it. Vises have two parallel jaws, one fixed and the other movable, threaded in and out by a screw and lever".

Thank you. Now we both learned something new!

SOMEBODY at our church, apparently of super-human strength,
managed to over tighten the battery cover on the above mic
such that no one is able to reopen it!


My feeble attempts usually result in unscrewing the opposite end -
the pick-up module. It's been sitting in our office like that for 3
weeks now, and I'm just afraid of what is happening to the
rechargeable batteries in there. Will It one day be opened, with
tons of white powdery battery innards falling out?


Just need suggestions on how to unscrew the battery
compartment.




GOT IT!!!


I put the battery end of the mic in the vise, surrounded by a thick rubber lid opener. I used another lid opener, and after 3 minutes of straining, it snapped open.

Batteries had not swollen or burst, and innards were clean. Still powers up after all this time, but definitely rechargeables need a charging, only 1 of 5 dots showing. My friend theorized the batteries had burst inside, and had swollen the cover shut. But they and microphone are all good.

Thanks all! Pastor will be sighing relieve, and his daughter will have her favorite worship mic back.


AMEN! And to all the non-believers, God Bless You!
