Except in applications that need a long shelf life. The new "EnergyOn" type NiMH cells are better, but alkaline still rules if you want more than 6 month shelf life. > I'm sure that 6v batteries ARE made up of smaller cells, but > which size might depend on the manufacturer.

Each of the four 1.5 V cells has that capacity. That's 11,000 to 13,000 mAh. Or about the equivalent of 5 or 6 ultra-high-capacity NiMH cells. Or about 11 or 12 standard capacity NiMH or alkaline cells. -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
