@Felthry I mean if 1.5V NiMHs exist I sincerely want to know 😂
@ticky ahah, well, they're 1.5 V replacements
I probably should have said AA or something instead
i mostly wanted to make it clear that i was asking about lithium primary batteries when i say lithium/iron sulfide, since many people see lithium and think li-ion
@ticky there was a company a few years ago that made a thing like that, except they marketed it as a way to extend the life of a battery (which is complete nonsense, once an alkaline cell hits 1.1 or 1.0 volts it's completely dead, not much energy left in it, and most devices work down to that voltage) instead of to make nimhs work in things that don't like 1.2 V cells
it was called "batterizer" if you want to look it up.
@Felthry @ticky yeah it's just a miniaturized boost circuit https://www.eevblog.com/2015/06/07/the-batteriser-explained/
@Felthry oh yeah I remember hearing about this, definitely quackery as it was originally framed, though it seems they’ve now pivoted to claiming it’s designed for rechargeables, which makes a lot more sense than their original claims. They still haven’t delivered them though lmao
