Re: Batteries
Yeah. I have one meter that uses a 9V, which lasts about a year if I put an alkaline in there. A lithium will last 3-4 years, typically. I don't use that meter much lately as th

Re: Batteries
I rather doubt that. Thickness of the plates bears directly on the reserve power spec, while the number of plates bears on the CCA spec. What I was dealing with was made by Exide, not made in

Re: Batteries
Are you sure?? I never saw anything suggesting that.? I can't say for certain, but I am fairly sure they do not. I was wrong about their shelf life.? It says 20 years, not 10 or 15. Andy

Re: Batteries
I think we are getting hung up on technical definitions that were not used in the real world. A carbon-zinc is classified as a Laclanche in all my battery books. [can't add the diacritical above the

That bit with the glow plug was back when I was in high school, *MANY* decades ago. Lithium AA cells weren't around back then... -- Member of the toughest, meanest, deadliest, most unrelenting --

Re: Batteries
Andy, The cell or battery is charged, for example, for a minute then discharged for a second and continuously repeat until charged. I have seen it apply to different cell types. Bertho From:

Re: Batteries
Now by "lithium" - do you mean the NON-rechargeable, super-long-life lithium 1.5 V cells?? The ones that cost $20 for a pack of four AA's? I use those for the outside thermometer so it won't freeze,

I thought that was the key difference between Leclanche cells and regular (non-Leclanche) dry cells. Andy

Re: Batteries
The Everready >primary< AA and AAA and 9V lithiums do not have a drop down regulator. Just disassembled a dead AA and 9V. They are pricey but probably worth it for several reasons... For test gear I

Re: Wireless Camera repair
Try removing then reconnecting the press on RF connector. Rotate it about 45 degree each way after you reconnect it. Those connectors have an amazingly low VSWR matched by their lack of robustness.

Re: Batteries
Question about the Lithium AA cells - I know they use a little buck regulator to get the voltage down to 1.5V (nominal) but that also means that they are current-limited. Finding out the current limit
