I need some advise on batteries I have made up a set of lights 1 x 20w with a digital controller giving me 30%, 60% and 100% power settings and a accessory 35w light, primary for DH use. I am using Phillips master line ES series globes in a polycarbonate housing. The problem I have is battery power. The SLA brick is the cheapest option but is heavy and dangerous when in a backpack. There are many types of Ni-Mh batteries in packs and individual ones available at Jaycar the D size 9000mAh with solder tabs is $24.00ea and the D size in a 8000mAh is $15.00ea but will be hard to house and charge, any suggestions? What are we all using?
