Actually, that would be my preferred way of doing it: 4 NiMH cells in series and no special circuitry to waste battery power. Most NiMH AA cells will easily deliver 1000 mA and the nominal 4.8 V output is fine. The catch is that fresh off the charger, the voltage is nearly 5.6 V and the absolute maximum rating of the Neo is 5.5 V. -- Rask Ingemann Lambertsen Danish law requires addresses in e-mail to be logged and stored for a year _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
