Battery Power
Several years ago I stopped buying regular batteries and bought only rechargeable batteries -- AA or AAA sizes.
One problem is the expense of buying C or D rechargeable batteries. Another is standardized recharging, especially if limited or no regular electricity is available.
A couple of years ago I heard a radio program featuring Dr. Gary C Ridenour, M.D. who was interviewed about pandemics on Coast To Coast AM. Amongst his fascinating discussion of the topic he mentioned that he had standardized on using AA rechargeables and had outdoor solar lighting that doubled as battery charges. Great idea!
The first problem of buying much more expensive C or D rechargeables was solved when I found batteries.com and their very inexpensive AA to C or D cell adapters. I have about 20 of them and they work great!
