I wonder if this 18.3mm diameter is what is helping get the 2000mAh. I'm guessing it took you a while to locate these, and you went with what you found. If there are any 16mm cells with that power rating, they're probably hiding out there in the tangle that is the web is they exist at all. >There was some argument they wouldn't fit because they were thicker >than the standard panasonic 18.3mm as opposed the 16mm.

Yeah... I finally got one of the bigger batteries myself. But I still love the way the system looks with the smaller battery. The idea of packing more power in the standard battery pack sounds very appealing! >From what you've written if I recall correctly, you must have cut off the entire top of the battery pack to be able to squeeze those 18.3mm dia. cells in there. 2.3mm is a significant amount of extra space to have to provide. Was there much or any extra space available with the original cells in there?

It sounds like you purposely removed it to provide enough space to get those 18.3mm cells in there... no? >The correct pronunciation is muse-see-leev-ich Accent on the 2nd syllable? Man... how do you deal with getting people to pronounce that one!? By grade school, it must have gotten pretty old. :-0 M. _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
