Hi. Haven't been here for a very long time, but I have a question about old equipment:
I have 6 old automatic batteries (2 shorties & 4 about 110mm length) that I purchased from V4L around April and May 2009. I charged them up and they still work!!! I tested them with a bunch of old cartos (same time period) that I had. I didn't inhale, though, because I have no idea what might have grown in those cartos over the past two years, and they also don't smell too great (even though Ive still got about 7 packs of sealed cartos).
For those members who have been around for a long time, will new V4L or any KR8 cartos work with the old batteries? (I'd read somewhere that because of the slot in the screw-end of the old batteries new-style cartos will not mate properly.)
I'd appreciate any info you could give me...especially if any of you are still using batteries from way back when.
