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.

This is just a guess as I don’t recall ever having seen a definition of an F-cell. But if they were really called that, then it is a D-cell with wire leads instead of just flat contacts.

A D with wire leads? I've never seen, or heard of that. Any idea as to what, or where such a battery would be used?
