Okay. Today I connected the 6/12AH Lead Acid battery to the *ist D. I've marked it on my calender and we'll see how many weeks it lasts before needing a charge. I think it's full up now -- reading 6.15V. It's not something you could put in a jacket pocket. Its a real hefty block of plastic and lead that might be okay in a backpack.
So, how did this test work out? How much continuous run time did you get with the battery?
I was tempted to try this myself at one point, and I still might get around to it yet.
thanks, Glen
