That's not a bad capacity for AA and it's an amazing capacity for D
(if it's true). With 4 "D" cells you could run a 2.4W front lamp for
a whole Dunwich Dynamo.

Pfffft, that's pants. Check out

Good ol' Rog at Strikalite assembled me a pack of 5 of these 9Ah beauties
into a 3x2 'pyramid' which I added an automotive 5A fuse to, and enclosed in
a small aluminium enclosure. The whole caboodle sits of the carrier stays on
my Ultra Galaxy, and when charged using a Jamara charger (also at Stikalite,
but pricy) the capacity is calculated at 10.5 Ah. It powers a pair of Cateye
10w fronts admirably, far better than the silly 2.2Ah sticks they came with,
and about the same weight. I'll take a pic and upload it tomorrow.

I have no connection to Strikalite, other than being a satisfied customer
for the last 10 years or so... they fulfill all my battery requirements.
