Figuring out everyday, common batteries for GURPS: Twilight 2000 was a bit of a pain.
I decided to figure out what they'd be rated in kWs, which is the standard GURPS: Vehicles way to note stored energy.
The reason I did this is normal cells have different capacities depending on their chemistry. Same size, similar voltage, very different life.
But it's not that hard with Wikipedia.
The difficulty comes from figuring out ancient batteries that nobody makes anymore. Looking up the devices they powered often gives you instructions on how to use modern batteries.
But I dug and dug.
I am confident that I've got a workable list now!
Hurray me!
