Hello everybody, my LX motordrive works again. I fingered a little bit at the various pins at the top (those ones releasing the camera from its bottom, I think), and suddenly it was alive again! *sigh*
So I decided to refurbish my NiCd pack now. Those Sanyo N225 1/3AF cells are not that easy to obtain. Although I know, modellers use them (slowflyerz). The Panasonic 1/3AAA would fit also, but only delivers 110 mAh. I found something better: GP250! This little green cells have the same size like the Panasonics, but provide 250 mA-hours! Modellers praise them, and so I ordered a dozen of them. Those of you in Germany who are also interested in this, here is where I ordered them: http://www.hopf-modelltechnik.de Price was EUR 1,90 each (incl. 16% VAT) - this is quite moderate. Other shops wanted 2,85 for the Sanyo cell or even 3,60. I'll keep you informed, how they perform etc... But first, I'm waiting for delivery. :-) Yours, Thomas
