I had one, but threw it away. The mantles were too difficult to maintain. Besides, they can't throw a beam, and looking for the remote control down the couch is liable to be quite an experience with one.


Remote control? Do you have a battery powered TV, or just no living room lamps? :-)

Green mostly, we can detect greem better than any other wavelength, given that we're not colorblind :-)

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


None, if someone shows up with working C cells  :-P
