[aprssig] Best TH-D7A after-market battery

[John Habbinga]

All of the D7 packs that I've seen are made with "2/3 A" battery
cells.  Mine had 600 mAh cells in it.  I work at a battery store and
the highest capacity we have is 1100 mAh in NiMH.

I've never come across a 2/3 A battery made of Li-Ion, so I'd imagine
it would take some creative redesign to use Li-Ion.
