[Alberg30] Batteries

[James Davis]

I fully agree with the remarks about alkaline batteries, except for one major application.  DO NOT use them in a handbearing compass.  For this use you want the very old style cardboard cased carbon-zinc.  Any other will guarantee a steady reading on the compass - it will point straight to the battery.
