Subject: poly six Battery replacement mods.

My polysix needs a new battery... the Old Crow site describes a
possible replacement with a 3v lithium disc cell..... can you use a 3.6
lithium solder-in 1/2 aa cell ? and if so , must you do the
capacitor and resistor to diode transplant? The reasoning for this
mod is not explained in that site and i cant find a tech who can
explain it to me... why cant you just switch the battery? is there a
diffrence with a lithium vs. nicad? (i have the reccomended diode,
but wonder why you must do it?)
