I've been using the same Balcar A1200 pack for decades and some White
Lightning's. Any take on that? I guess my Nikons Hasselblads Rolleiflex and
Leica M's are fry proof?

By the waY my powerpac says "Balcar Made in France" does that sound like to
conehead's or what?
"My name is Balcar. I was made in France" no it doesn't talk to me.
