Check your calc again, I believe the 85 uses 4 AAA batteries. I don't own
one personally, but I have checked other peoples 85s and my own 81 and 82
and they all use AAAs. I think you aught to check yourself before you
start flaming people about these kind of things. However, I checked the
voltage on AAAs and in that respect I found my mistake. AAAs do output 1.5
volts not 1.2 as I stated earlier.
Also the only spelling mistake you made in your letter was adding an A when
you wrote AA and forgetting one when you intended to write AAA. But
nobody's perfect.
