4T, Ti's still have some battery drain but it is much lower than the
original 4. A bad 4 had idle current drain around 30 micro amps, a 4T is as
low as 5.

| That is the real story. Early OM-4s (not Ts or Tis) and 2s models had an
| energy hog circuit that caused them to drain their little LR44's at a very
| high rate. There's no problem with later model OM-4s to my knowledge.

| Hi all !
|
| I want to make a question... From such a long time I've been listen
problems
| with batteries on the OM group, specialy on the OM-2sp and the OM-4 (later
| models). Some people give me "solutions" like, "it was a problem from
| olympus" or "on past years the batteries where made from silver and work
for
| longer time" or "there is a problem with one circuit", I'm tired of that !
|
| somebody knows the real story ?
|
| Max
|
| P.S. Thanks for the greetings Jim and Tom !!!!
