[QUOTE="Kevin, post: 40514, member: 603"] Brent, Interesting on the ultras, I have not tried them, just figured they would have been to close to regular Duracell's. Like you said they are the same size so how could they be much different. Basically the only way they could make them run better in the cold is to reduce the resistence within the battery, like using more conductive materials on the electrodes, which they must have done. Also to get more life out of them they must have changed the construction to gain more usable internal volume although there really could not be too much of a gain from that. I think that lowering the resistence must be the main change. Because of this I think they would work better for applications, like GPS, Flash Lights and Cameras. I bet that the regular Duracell's for use in things like TV remotes, and alarm clocks would actually last longer since they don't draw many amps. Overall I bet The lithium batteries will really take off here in the next few years as they keep improving them, sounds like your phone is doing good. Just curious, what kind of GPS do you have and how long does it last. [/QUOTE]
