Re: RECHARGEABLE ALKALINE BATTERIES

The only point about rechargeable alkaline for me are the 1.5v instead
of the 1.2v rechargeables which do not work in some devices. They
also don,t leave in the " dark " without any warning. I never got used
to it. I use portable lighting every night. Watch out for any
chinese type "D" cells wether brand name or not. I took one apart and
it had a "C" size suspended inside. I prefer to do my own D cells out
of C cells by using a white pvc pipe as a sleeve. There is one
situation that you can get the same voltage with the 1.2 volt cells.
I have a 4 cell D size mag that can take five c size in a pvc sleeve
for equal voltage.
