Tip of the Week
1) VBCP battery prices for FY 2004
NSN and Battery Type Price
6140-01-446-9506 / Type 6TMF 72.21
6140-01-390-1969 / Type 2HN 54.46
6140-01-390-1968 / Type 4HN 80.24
2) MIXING BATTERY TYPES: Remember, if you are replacing older 6TL batteries
with new 6TMF (or 6TLFP) batteries, it is desirable not to mix 6TL with
6TMF/6TLFP in the vehicle/equipment. The older 6TL cases are all green,
including the top. The newer styles 6TLFP and 6TMF have black tops and a
green case or brown case. The reason is that the chemistries are
different.
Bottom line: Its most desirable to have "black tops with black tops" and
"green tops with green tops."
