Hey Guys,
I'm looking for a special size NiMH cell to replace in a camera.
It needs to be 42x16.4mm instead of the standard AA 48x14mm.
The only thing I could find with a decent capacity was a Varta battery for a discontinued Oral-B toothbrush: http://cpc.farnell.com/varta/55118201012/battery-ni-mh-1-vh2100/dp/BT03141
It's already expensive and all of the suppliers seem to be in England which adds additional price to shipping.
I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I was hoping someone would know of an affordable supplier for this kind of thing.
What camera dipshit?

So buy it?

If you'd like to know, it's the Nikon D1.

I would if I just needed two, but $6.99 isn't very workable since I need six.
4/5 A size is 17*43mm, is that good enough?

Thanks Anon,
I'll have to remeasure the case, but it looks like that will work.

That's 4 times as much as I payed for the camera.
I already have the dead battery pack taken apart, so I'd rather try and replace the cells.
its a fucking battery. just make something that fits in the slot and touches the contacts and run wires out to a slim lithium ion pack.

I think it would be easier to reuse the existing cartridge.

modify the camera

How would drilling into it help?

shove fucking tinfoil in it with the shorter cell or design a quick part and 3D print it to snap the shorter cell into place. Literally do this all the time with outdated shit, just make sure the voltage and amperage is right

I don't understand.
I need a battery shorter than AA; what would aluminium foil do?

nigger you said you need one that's LONGER than standard size. which is it?
the foil just acts as an extension so that you can complete the circuit with the battery, just don't cross streams

ah nevermind fuck me I see, I mixed up my LxW, yeah use this

makes the hole bigger then you can fit a real battery into it.
youd be surprised what you can cram an 18650 into if you have enough motivation.
