   Why do you respond to Alan Baker?   
   His IQ (at about 4) is half of yours, where even that is not saying much.   
      
   Every time you respond to him (or to "Hank" or "Rod", et. al), then I have   
   to see their crap which is always them trying to prove they're smarter than   
   a brick.

   It's not me who is confused.   
   You iKooks always fail in the basic "adult logic" compartment.   
   The AAA batteries are about half the size and about the same price as AA.

   For me, it's a better deal to buy devices that take AA instead of AAA.

   It's unusual to find small consumer devices which can't be designed for AA.   
   If you've never looked, you won't realize how accurate that statement is.   
      
   I'm not saying they can't make a smaller AAA device than an AA device.   
      
   I'm saying almost everything AAA you'd want to buy exists at about the same   
   size in AA - where then it's a better deal overall to use the AA batteries.

   My point is that I strategically purchase parts that have the best bang for   
   the buck in terms of batteries, where I shun AAA in favor of AA, just as I   
   shun non-rechargeables in favor of rechargeables, and just like I shun C   
   cells in favor of D cells.   
      
   BTW, I used to work on defibrillators, where you'd be shocked at how   
   fantastically HEAVY a GE NiCad C cell truly was in those days.   
      
   The difference in weight, in those days, between a GE NiCad C cell and a   
   RadioShack NiCad D cell (which was just a C-cell inside a D-casing) was   
   like the difference in weight between a bowling ball and a feather.   
      
   The point being that the capacity is what matters most; not the size.   
      
   In summary, when I buy small'ish devices, such as headlamps or small   
   flashlights, I ignore the AAA offerings and only buy the AA offerings.   
      
   That has advantages and almost no disadvantages in my practical experience.   
   That you disagree is fine - but you need a sensible argument and yet, you   
   have none to supply.   
      
   Why?   
   I don't know why.   
      
   I suspect you don't own an adult brain, nospam.
