Is Radio Shack A Good Source for Hard to Find Batteries...???

[Alex]

This could be an awesome link...here are some of the details...

1. The prices above are per cell. The card shown
on each data page contains four or five cells. You may order whatever quantity you like.
2. All International orders MUST be in US funds. Cash is accepted but ONLY IN BILLS: no coins; please wrap it nicely so it is not visible.
For faster service try using
Paypal if your billing country qualifies.
3. Please verify your equipment against the list on the data pages. Although this information is believed to be correct the final determination of compatibility is yours. No refunds will be issued for incompatibility.
4. All sales are FINAL.

I read through and discovered you don't have to be a whole "card" of batteries....

I read a claim that once activated, the batteries only last two months, but then I read that some people claim the batteries have lasted five years in their light meters.

I'm going to ask the seller to devote a section to which Super-8 cameras use these batteries.

I got a response, and I erred in my 2 month battery life description...

Alex,

Well, I do list what movie cameries use the batteries I sell - under each battery's specs. If you wish to have a link to my site on your forum, of course I'd agree to that. Still cameras and movie cameras are all listed on one page so it's really easy to navigate.

By the way, I just read your post on the forum. You say that "once activated they last only two months...". That's true for the Zinc-air cells sold today as "replacements" for the old mercury cells. That is not true for my cells - these are ORIGINAL mercury cells. My FAQ section explains that in detail.

I missed the part that said the two month longevity was related to a zinc battery and not the mercury battery.
