I just came into possession of a micro strobe light(with a true strobe flash tube) , and it requires a battery that puts out 1.2 to
1.5 volts. It says it can use any AAA, AA,C, or D 1.5 volt battery.I found this chart online for AAA,AA,C,D and N batteries:
D: (15.0 Ah) C: (7.80 Ah) AA: (2.85 Ah) AAA: (1.15 Ah) N: (0.80 Ah)
So my question is this: I am looking for a battery that balances how long the strobe will flash versus weight. The unit currently weighs approx. 21 grams (.75 oz) but I think with a suitable battery I may be able to get it as low as 17.5 grams and fit into a
24mm body tube.... not bad for a true strobe light!... I want to get it as small and light as possible for use with CDEFG minimum diameter models ........So what do you suggest? A typical duracell AAA weighs 11.2 gr,,,while an AA weighs 24.1 and an N cell weighs 0.8 gr... I have seen silver oxide low drain 1.5 v 165mAh, 1.5V alkaline maganese 170mAh, some other one?
thanks in advance
