Hello all.
I work a relatively large paper mill (900 employees) and am thinking about trying to introduce rechargeable batteries into the plant. The company stocks and supplies all workers with two different models of Pelican led lights, one model uses two AA batteries and the other uses two 3 volt batteries.
As it is a old plant with poor lighting, flashlights are a must have and in turn so are batteries. We have an unlimited supply of non rechargables that creates buckets full of waste batteries on a weekly basis. I am not a "tree hugger"but am kind of concerned about all of this waste going into the landfill.
I have taken it apon myself to at least look into the possibility of either replacing our current line of lights with a rechargeable model or trying to start a rechargeable battery program.
So I came here looking for any advice on this subject, as far as does it make sense to even try this?? What brands of batteries or lights would anyaone recommend, or any other input on this subject.
Thanks in advance for any help at all on to this..
