Yes, that 3.6V AA1/2 is rare and OVERPRICED around
here. 16.xx to
20 ea CDN. Still searching for cheaper sources in canada. Must it
I buy them for about a buck at the swapmeet, maybe not brand brand new, but
not used and typically within the expected 5 year or so shelf life. Plenty
of people sell them new on Ebay for $6, so I don't bother.
I will mention that I still have a few hunderd of the 4.5v alkalines for $5
or less in quantity.
