Are >these replacements for the non-available Ni Cad rechargeable batteries? >Major Waechter >USAF Retired The Quantum batteries are external batteries that power flashes allowing more flashes and quicker recycle times. I have been using 2 Quantum QB1's for about 10 or 12 years. I have had them worked over by Quantum once each during that time. I also have a Quantum Turbo that I have had for about 6 years and it has gotten almost daily use. They are very good replacements for the AA batteries if you use a flash a lot. See: http://www.qtm.com/ for more info on their batteries and flashes they power. - -- Harrison McClary http://www.mcclary.net
