Scott,
In general, I would agree with you 100%. However, most of us that
have these
critters are more than somewhat paranoid about burning out one of these
little leds they refer to a modeling lights. With the recent
revelations from Olympus, it hasn't gotten any better. I will only use
a power supply that can have no spikes or any other suprises (polarity
reversal etc.). I call these batteries and since they are relatively
cheap, attractive.
