Re: Battery for RCM6700

That's not a bad choice. But it's half the capacity I need for a 
5-year life, unless I'm over thinking this.

We may have to go to a separate time-of-day clock device that uses
far less current than the RCM6700's 120ua in order to get the life
span we want with a reasonable size battery.
