And I've just made a discovery. My old batteries are Yuasa, but EE's website says that they use both Yuasa and Panasonic batteries in these lights. The Yuasa battery (NP2.6-12FR) is rated at 2.6 AH at 20 amp, and the Panasonic equivalent (LC-V123R4P) are the same physical size, but are rated at 3.4 AH at 20 amps. That's a considerable improvement - 30% extra burn time. Anyone ever noticed longer burn times with the Panasonic batteries? > -----Original Message----- > From: Ian Puleston [mailto:DiverIan@pa*.ne*] > Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2000 2:18 PM > To: techdiver@aquanaut.com > Subject: Replacement batteries for Extreme Exposure lights > > > One of the battery packs for my Extreme Exposure Explorer 6 light > has just died on me.
