I would like to know how long for is possible to store, and in wich
conditions (temperature), the out of production mercury cells 1.35Volts
PX625.
They are infact now rare, due to the mercury contained iside that creates
enviroment contamination problems. On the other hand it is no easy to
obtain
with other batteries the same perfrmances on some apparatus, due the
constant voltage output.
Considering that I still have a couple of PX625, I would like to know how
long may I expect to have them ready to work with my exposure meter Gossen
Lunasix3 that accepts also the new alkaline 625 but showing no useful
indications due the different voltage ( using two PX625 there is a
difference of plus 0.3 Volts).
Is there any serious adapter to use with different battery type? I was
thinking to choose Silver-oxide cells and do not take in consideration
air-zinc technology because of the short life of cells: less than one
year,
even if you do not use the meter, from the moment you lift the label.
MOST IM****TANT: How can I manage the mercury exausted cells? Can I put
them
in the "normal" exausted batteries bin?
Thanks. Carlo
