Sorry, but I'll keep spanking as long as that is what it takes to shake
your data out into the open.

If the data in the data sheets is not relevant, we *all* need to know
about it, and if you guys have data that backs up claims contradicting
the manufacturer's own published data, you gotta share it if you want
those claims to be accepted.  I'd really rather not spank ;^>

I know, I know, same as you and Sheer; I'm just playing devil's advocate
for those many people who live inland and/or south of us where the
temperature extremes *do* get to where thermal management could be
required for at least one end of the range (possibly with either
chemistry).

Lots of people get by without thermal management on their PbA packs,
that doesn't mean you and I wouldn't be happier with it than without it,
same as we could get by without it on NiZn, but some poor guy in Tucson
is going to be swearing at his (and wouldn't be if he were using PbA).

Sounds great!
