Hmm, I got a battery tester and the batteries aren't as flat as I thought. They're sitting at something like 85% capacity.

Still, thats not 100%, so out they go and in go the NiMH. The old ones can go in a drawer to await the end of civilisation, where I can barter them for virgin brides.

How many Virgin brides does one get for half dead A cells?


-Edit- /me quickly rushes to the junk draw in the kitchen to dig out old batteries :-D

Coincidentally, I found 3 rechargeable C cells that have been lying at the bottom of a box since before 1990, and they actually still took a charge. I was pleased, before I realised that I don't have one single item made to run on them. That's why they were at the bottom of a box for 15 years.
