Andy, just looking at the site I see: either NiCad or NiMH ; which ones
have you used in your projects ?
When you say "donor battery" do you mean the original battery case and
circuitry (I assume there is some circuitry inside a battery casing) ?
How did you re-seal the battery cell for use; just some superglue ?
Sorry for the dumb questions, but I am curious.
thanks,
Mad Dog
