| #5 Oh. Sorry. Running on not enough sleep - we got rousted out at 2 am for a drunk. :-( It would be cool to have 12-year batteries for my flashlights & radio, though. ;-p |

| #3 Any reason they couldn't also make regular batteries using this technology, Frank? I'm always having to change batteries in the radio & need to switch to fresh batteries every duty night as well. Not to mention the AA's for the clickers. Yeah, NiCad's cheaper in the long run than alkaline, but it would be nice to reclaim the top of the chest where all the chargers sit. |
