## Discrepancy

DURING ANNUAL INSP, ELT DID NOT TEST. FOUND 2 D-CELL BATTERIES CORRODED. THESE 2 BATTERIES WERE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STACK AND THE CORROSION WAS NOT EVIDENT AT FIRST. THERE WERE 2 YEARS REMAINING BEFORE BATTERY REPLACEMENT WAS DUE. THESE ARE THE ORIGINAL BATTERIES SINCE NEW (APRIL 2002).  RECOMMEND BATTERIES BE REMOVED COMPLETELY AT EACH ANNUAL AND INSPECTED.
