Hey John,
I used them all the time (VST and Lind made them) with my 2300. I would
not use them on my 3400 as the current draw was substantially more --
don't know how they would fair with a 2400.
They were nice. Lead/acid sealed cells, could really hold a charge, and
no memory effect. Sold them all to a guy in PA who makes his own
computer tote bags: www.moonbowgear.com
You'll be hard-pressed to find new ones.
