Bogus, I'm afraid

Submitted by rhkennerly on September 19, 2007 - 02:37.

my Energizer Alkaline No 529 6 volt lantern battery has four 1.5 volt (1.5 times 4 = six volts) double length 'C' cell batteries (exactly the same length as two 'C' cells taped end to end, but completely metal clad with a press formed body and a rolled crimp at the + end.

You owe me a battery, I think. The things I do for "science"--big sigh.
