sanyo kdrh's expensive but not exsessively so (20 bucks australian per pair)-about twice the pric of over the counter stuff-but 4ah d cells against the normal 1.6ah d's most people buy they are the ones used for those battery backed up exit signs that you see in public buildings

just a thought-if its the glue on one side causing the warping-glue both sides?? might reduce the warping worth a try maybe

actuallly the 9v ones arent too bad, i pay 19.95 aussie dollars for the 7.2 v ones and i paid just under 30 dollars for a true 9v nicad for my multimeter at 2.50 a pop for energisers- they would have to fail in under 12 recharge cycles to be more expensive memory effect isnt that bad-i...

use a 9v nicad battery (be carefull-not all the 9v rectangular bats are 9v in the nicads) there are true 9v nicads available but not all of the `9v nicads' are 9v-hence my warning as posted use a bridge rectifier to drop the trackvoltage to 9v and takes care of dc reversing and dcc...

one thought instead of a 9v battery-use a 9v nicad battery (be carefull-not all the 9v rectangular bats are 9v in the nicads) tricklecharged from the rails using a lighting pickup truck and if the big lense offends your protypical sensiblities-use the pinhole version instead(1mm hole is all...

test ;-)

"2001 remains forever shadowed by the tragic events that have left us as a nation shaken. For far too long we had taken for granted a secure and peaceful world, but we have now been jolted from that comfort into harsh reality. This is a time that demands personal sacrifice and vigilance. We will...
