somewhere on that trip. I don't suppose they are hiding in your guest room?

T20, T32 and T Power Control 1 are all OK with NiCad, so I suppose they
should be OK with NiMH. T18 isn't.

particular, I seem to recall Tim reporting quite authoritatively on the
subject of low internal resistance batteries in older flash units.
