It lives! It’s working 100% ok.

Thanks to this thread below.

It just needed a little aluminum foil wrapped around the terminal leads.
Im using a shapeways plastic power pack with a copper dual coiled spring

Question, is there a more permanent solution for the terminal leads?

The aluminum foil falls off when the pack is pulled out.

I can solder, but dont want to mess up the 25c terminal leads and do it incorrectly.

I think the ideal solution would be to insert new silver rivets in place of the corroded ones. Some time ago I bought a bag full on eBay but unfortunately they are metric size and a tiny bit too small to make good contact. So double check before ordering...
