However, the longer battery names (like LK02) can usually be found on MOST batteries in tiny print under the simpler size names (like A). As for the original post, the UK is in Europe last time I checked, and I've never in my life seen or heard of a B size battery, so Biffles post sounds most feasable. 636324@blogcritics.org Thu, 27 Sep 2007 18:19:25 EDT
