Totally unsuitable, and they can have a very short life unless you muck about extensively with very low power RAM chips. > So, I think I might fit a Lithium battery (CR123a type or similar) Fit an NiMH, they're a drop-in replacement. > I really don't want to use ni-cad batteries any more, I've seen so much good gear ruined by them. You can't even get NiCad backup batteries any more. Just get a NiMH, fit it, and forget it for another twenty years. -- Gordonjcp MM0YEQ
