[Milsurplus] Yep, 'F' cells

[Jim Pruitt]

I have 4 F cells that I got from Tektronix surplus (country store) back 
in the late 70's.  I got them to make a nicad battery pack for my Nosen 
Cessna 310 quarter scale RC plane.  They look like 2 D cells end to end 
for length and about the same diameter as a D cell.  I don't know what 
Tektronix used them in but they used them in something.
