The HP25 Owners Manual states that a rechargable battery pack should last from 2 to 6 hours. I've experienced battery life at the low end of that range with Eneloop rechargables. Alkaline batteries wouldn't last mich longer. I know what you mean about leaving batteries, even fairly new ones, in a lightly used electronic device. The only lesson I've able to discern after decades of experience is; The more expensive the device, the more likely a leak. Seriously. It's like they want to ruin your whole day. If you've ordered springs and also bought the contacts, see if the contacts also work if bent properly. I suspect they might be a good alternative to the springs, but I don't have any to test that assumption. On my part, I'll let you know how trimming down the spring coils goes... ~Mark Remember kids, "In a democracy, you get the government you deserve." |
