I don't see how voltage from a battery could ever spike above the nominal zero-current voltage. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Herbert & Lee Kanner" <kanner@acm.org> To: <leica-users-digest@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2001 17:56 Subject: Re: [Leica] M6 correction lens > Yes, but chemical changes during discharge will raise the internal > resistance of a battery, which will cause a drop in voltage when > under load.
