Sorry, Steve, for coming up with another question instead of an answer.
Most car batteries are lead-acid, of course. But weren't there once some
nickel-cadmium car batteries? The advantage here, of course, is that
it doesn't hurt a NiCd battery when you run it all the way down flat,
while it does hurt a lead-acid type to do that.

Anyone know of such a battery, in the size for a car battery?
