Don’t put batteries next to CDs or DVDs
I didn’t really think about this until it was too late! I have a guitar case, and in it I kept a few extra 9-volt batteries for the acoustic guitar pickup. Well, at a recording session the other night, I threw some CDRs in the case. They weren’t touching the batteries; there were probably a few strings, picks, and some papers in between the CDs and the 9-volts.
