All I seem to be able to find online are the standard 110mah batteries
(Sanyos). I've ordered a set and will see how it goes. I can't fine the
225s that you describe, but they sure would be nice. For the packs I am
going to resell, the standard cells are probably the right choice. For the
'keepers', a mix of NiCad, NiMH and High capacity would be nice --- just
take the right one for the situations.

Tom, and others inbterested.
I have replaced cells in NiCads several times, with both NiMH and
NiCad cells.
The best result I have ever had was four years ago with NiCad cells,
brand Sanyo, type High Capacity Cadnica (E-series). The Sanyo
catalogue I am quoting from is from 1996, so I don't know if these
cells are still available... the Sanyo website does mention the series
but not the model or size I used (see below).
The ones I used were model N-225AE, which means that the capacity is
225 mAh. This is double of the 1/3AA cells, but of course these cells
are bigger: 17.0mm diameter and 17.0 diameter in height. 12 of these
cells fitted exactly into the battery pack housing, but it took great
care to assemble straight-in-line packs, otherwise they wouldn't fit.
Matrix of the pack was just like with the original Olympus NiCad
pack., if I remember well.
