Hey Aragorn... check this out

Lemlux,

I checked Sanyo A´s at 2700ma so far - not shure where to buy them online in the US - the german source makes no sense for you guys - its called The Sanyo Twicell HR-AU.

There are also GP "AF" called GP250AFH at 2500ma available.

Found a US source for the Sanyos at Batteries America

Can you advise where we can find 2700 mAh NiMh A cells on line. I can't seem to search my way there. I wonder how much more expensive rechargeable A cells are than the AA's<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Ron:

Thanks for the link, but the 2700 mAh cells that are listed are FA cells (sometimes called AF)

These won't fit in the DB's because they are 18 mm wide compared to 17 mm on the A and the 123 and 17.2 on the 4/3 A which is a tight fit.

lemlux,

I have bought their 2700mah cells. They were HR-AUX cells, 17mm dia.

They also have 4/3A cells at 4000mah, 17mm x 67mm and 4/3"fat"A cells at both 4000 and 4500mah, 18mm x 67mm. All were Sanyo. I called today and all 3 were in stock.

 

[lemlux]

Ron: Maybe the "A" in AF or FA stands for "fat" for the extra 1mm of diameter.

Thanks for the head's up. If the 4/3 A's don't deliver adequate capacity, I'll go after some of the 4000 mAh 4/3 A's.

Thanks.
