Thanks for the reminder. Those, I think they are
same as the LDS (Low Self Discharge) batteries
Nate and I have been discussing. I think.

Yes...they are Low Self Dicharge batteries.

I have a mini mag sitting here on the desk that I charged in Febuary
that I use as a test...its still just as bright 7 months later as it
was when I took the batteries out of the charger.

I keep them in my Olympus C-4000 digital cameras. I take a lot of
photos and charge them about every 2-4 months. They last very well
and run at full power up till the last 2-3 photos. My truck camera has
180 flash photos on the memory card since the last time I charged
it...in June.

"The socialist movement takes great pains to circulate frequently new labels for its ideally constructed state.
Each worn-out label is replaced by another which raises hopes of an ultimate solution of the insoluble basic
problem of Socialism, until it becomes obvious that nothing has been changed but the name.
The most recent slogan is "State Capitalism."[Fascism] It is not commonly realized that this covers nothing more
than what used to be called Planned Economy and State Socialism, and that State Capitalism, Planned Economy,
and State Socialism diverge only in non-essentials from the "classic" ideal of egalitarian Socialism. - Ludwig von Mises (1922)
