Post by: Jade on August 18, 2004, 12:44:00 PM: One of the biggest problems, IMO, would be not knowing just exactly how much lithium you had left in that battery. Swim was never willing to take such a chance on ruining a rxn by it, are you? ;)

Post by: dwarfer on August 19, 2004, 03:54:00 AM: <<100 for $34:

_{Also, if you look in Snadio Frack's catalogue, you can find
large amp hour batteries at a price which is cheaper than the AA's.

Or so I've been told, anyway}

Post by: Jacked on August 19, 2004, 11:46:00 AM: How can you use any of it. Swim says a used battery's Li will disintegrate while unrolling. That's a fully used AA anyway.

Post by: cycosyince on August 20, 2004, 08:37:00 PM: lestat, since the pound note is worth more outside the u.k. (in some respects) why not purchase your bats via catalog or internet from places where the note gets you a better deal? Theres nothing odd about saving a few pounds being battery thrifty... ;) ;) grin grin say no more aye?
