RE: Speculation

My general experience with regard to batteries has been similar to fmak's. The have been nothing but a PITA in various applications. However, I have not tried the latest battery technology (unless it is hidden in one of my portable devices and so far, none of these has shown any miraculous properties as to reliability). In the past I had some really harsh demands on my batteries, namely powering avionics in my sailplane at high altitudes when it is very cold.

One thing I would like to see is measurements of noise on the output of the battery when it is being attacked by the type of load generated by computer logic (e.g. CMOS) where there is huge spikiness of the load at various frequencies depending on both hardware and software. I suspect this requires bypass right near the load, in any event since the inductance of the wiring between an ideal battery and the load would still leave noise.
