Wow. I never thought i'd find this battery again. I've had dreams about finding it, after i lost it around thanksgiving. Since than, there have been subzero temperatures. I came back on my xmas break, went to my friend's house, and he found the pila near his driveway! I went to go pick it up, ended up staying a while.

We used the flashlights a lot, just for the hell of it. The pila had a little bit of rust on the top, but i figured i'd just test it out for fun in my sl scorpion with a 3.6v batt.

Guess what? it worked, and it was brighter than the one that was already in there (i left the charger in new york =(

This is great. I never thought the pila would survive this! I'm not sure if it has been damaged though... is there any way to find out? thanks!
 
Wow JSB, thanks! I think it is working fine. I think you are the first person who would replace something after it got LEFT OUTSIDE in VERY cold weather for over a month. I hope none of the water got into it. But like i said, it still worked. I've never heard of anything like this for a battery!

(or are you just saying that because i didnt blow myself up yet? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif)
 
Cold weather should not have any affect on it. I would hate for you to blow yourself up. I really just want to be a good dealer and make sure your product was ok. Need happy customers.
 
Keep your eye's peeled for my freakin' sunglasses then, will ya /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Man, I'm on a "losing stuff" binge lately.

Hey, there should be a "CHEERS" for Jon at JSB! Jon reflects the overall attitude of the Pila manufacturers and looks to be a straight-edge kinda guy.
