My MetalSub tank light portion wasn't securely fastened to my battery tank. One of the heads collected an impressive amount of corrosion in a single 40 min. dive. I cleaned the corrosion off as best I could and it is charging now. Hopefully it will still seal and work just fine but presumably that one "nub" is some minute amount smaller (lower) than it was. Has this happened to anyone? Is it possible to replace one of these?

I only bought that battery tank about 6 months ago.
