As you can see the Digital Camera Battery provides steady power from start to finish. The unregulated
output from other packs can cause over voltage and brown out conditions that can damage sensitive
electronics. The unregulated output of the LEAD cell and many other types of rechargeable packs
can also provide very high currents that could start an electrical fire in a matter of seconds if the
cable should become shorted or damaged.
