Vinergy of UNKNOWN size

It's an ultra-rare A23. Looks a bit like a CR123 designed for cameras, like the army of Great Powers we have assembled - yet are still to actually use because we don't own anything that specialist. Phorenzik sent this in four months ago. It got a bit lost.



"I found this little beauty at work the other day. It looks like a regular double A battery, doesn't it?"



"You're WRONG! It's actually one of those cocky little fuckers that thinks they're better than regular sized batteries! I've included a picture with a 5p coin for size comparison. I would've used a pound coin but I only had a £2 pound coin, a 50p coin, three 2p coins, two 1p coins, four 20p, coins, and a 10p coin on me at the time. That's every fucking coin EXCEPT the one I wanted. This is like the story of my life in coin form. At least I have £3.53 though, so it's not all bad. Look at the smarmy little bastard. He's loving all the attention. That's it. Cheerio then - Phorenzik."

Keep 'em coming phorenzik. You're getting more/less occasional all the time. Decent posts, too, with admirable paranoid grumbling.

Pop them up your arse next time, Phorenzik. You'd become an internet celebrity.

What idiot would use a 5p coin for comparison.

This image tells me NOTHING.

I used to be on the internet all the time a few months ago. Then I did that bad thing that made me not be on the internet all the time.

I've learned my lesson though.

A23 isn't so uncommon. Buy a small device that transmits RF from Hong Kong and you'll probably have something that needs it. I bought an aftermarket keyless entry system, and it took it. I also bought a RF remote camera trigger that uses them too.

I think that's still pretty uncommon.
