Interesting thread that has wandered into interesting places, as 
interesting threads are wont to do.

Here is another possible diversion:

The other day I reported here, I think that the thread cause me to did 
out my HP 16C and my HP (probably) 12C, both of which immediately 
powered on batteries that are probably 30 years (certainly more that 6 
years old) and yes, the machines were "Off", but batteries have a "shelf 
life" and the machines have some keep-alive stuff (I suspect) even when 
powered down).

A day or two later I happened to run across my TI Programmer (not "RPN" 
as I recall) but its battery pack is dead (but not leaking. as near as I 
can tell).  I don't know where its charging cord is (lost in the Great 
Downsizing, I fear) but I did find one fore sale on Ebay.

The machine DOES power up with a 9v "transistor" battery.
