Exciting thread topic alert!
Very occasional poster here. Infrequent lurker.
As the weather is starting to turn, I thought I'd do a pre-Winter shakedown of my system and fire it up for the first time since March.
All was well, but I discovered that something didn't shut down properly.
Tracked down my issue to a duff set of batteries.
My question to you all is this:
what batteries do you use in your rads?
I'd been replacing mine every year with a set of Costco own brand.
Has anyone given Enerloops a try?
I'd never heard of them until recently, but the fact that they don't leak seems like it could prevent having to buy a new rad "thing" (Mine are HR80, and I don't know the correct lingo for the updated ones!)
