A happy new year all and a poser.

My wife was given a camera which uses 2 AA cells. Because I doubt she
will use it much I put 2 ordinary alkaline dry cells in it, it shows
discharged after about 40 frames stored.

Now these cells still show 1.45V so I am wondering what piece of
equipment would make use of the remaining charge. I am thinking
probably a LED torch of some sort?

I could buy some NiMH cells for it, Nicads are expressly warned
against, but my experience of NiMH is they are great for regular use
then fail quickly but have a high self discharge if left for long
periods.

I use NiMh in mine with no problems and they have more life than most Dry
cells
