Well, my 1280X,AKA 'the seive' going back tomorrow....

I used my Fisher 1280X water detector THREE times after having it rebuilt...., Imagine my shock when I removed the batteries to find the battery compartment looking like 'corrosion city', from water leaking into it after just getting it back:veryangry:...I re-assembled it and held it up to the light: even with the gasket installed and the door screws tightened properly, you can see the gap between the NEW gasket and the NEW battery door, and the original detector housing....."HOUSTON, WE'VE GOT A PROBLEM!!!".....Will let y'all know what they say.

Hopefully they will fix the leakage for you & then get out & use it to make sure that it is okay! Hope you find nice digs! Ma

Fisher re designed them so the ears would not crack. No problem since
