Brilliant John. Thank you.

Count me in. Let me know how much.

SunriseBoy said:I emailed White's with a link to somewhere, telling them of our efforts to make their product work better as far as battery life goes. I suppose they'll just laugh it off.

Works pretty well from what I was told so I'm going to try it myself if I can, have to move house soon though so won't be until after that though.
Will provide more power than the niMh rechargeables & a little more than alkalines so should be a good thing, think it works out to about 12.8v but is cheap & looks like its easy to do.
SunriseBoy said:OK, that's good, but how can I get the mod done on the SL battery slide to take the 2900s?
