The power to weight of Li-Ion is way better than Ni-MH so I think this is

| Hi Danny!
| This is typical of my experience; you have far better stores/dealers
| with much better choice, in the States! It's like the link Oryoki sent
| me the other week, in relation to cables; super store but not practical
| for someone in the UK. We used to have choice like this in the UK, but
| since the accountants took over running the businesses, they've all
| disappeared.
| Many thanks for your input.
