[R-390] OT Battery Leakage

[Transmaster]

ProCell's are NOT a second best line. If anything they are better then the
Duracell line as they have a higher charge density. They are designed for
professional use, that is any body who uses battery powered equipment to
make a living. They are designed for a heavy current draw. The main reason
why they are cheaper is they are sold in bulk packaging that is easy for a
person to get into to get fresh batteries, a bubble pack out in the sticks
with a petroleum survey team just doesn't hack it. Please read up on the
ProCell line at the Duracell website, and get your facts straight.
