Hi O.J., >It seems that opening the battery case and zapping shorted cells >individually would be better though. Anyone have the no doubt past posts or >a URL on how best to do this?
Look here: http://www.fastlight.demon.co.uk/jg/duobatt.html I used basically same system. But beware with the internal circuit!. In Type-I batteries, there is not such circuit so in my case it was easier... but I didn't know before opening :-)! >The 2 PRAM batteries - anyone every replace them with any other type? >Anyone every disable the recharging circuit? Problem is that there is a middle point (3V) which is also connected, so you need two batteries.
