Lee, Michael, et al,
I think we need to update the information on the repair / battery
replacement
for the M18v control pack 2 that I typed up for you after Frank van
Lindert and
John Hermanson coached me through the repair.
I see that it has already been improved greatly with help from Mark
Dapoz.
Still, we need to include a warning that using NiMH batteries of the
conventional
nine volt pack type may not be able to deliver power sufficient for 5
fps witn the MD2
on an OM4T and that rewind will also be slower if one uses NiMh
I personally have switched back to Nickel Cadmium batteries (the yellow
EverReady kind) and the performance even with my OM2s at 3.5 fps max is
better than it
was with NiMh which I tried twice with new batteries.
I now use all the cells inside two EverReady NiCad nine volt batteries.
Tim and Rand and everyone, what do you think?
I'm willing to help if needed.
Hank Hogan
