Hi,
That would be replacing the cathode resistor/cap with a battery, in my case a NiMH @ about 1.2-1.3v.
Yes, the general rule with batteries in most applications seems to be at least 10X battery capacity vs current.
No problem there, my Duracell pre-charged (slow self discharge) NiMH says 2000 mAh and I'm only drawing 7.3 ma.

Can I assume from your reply that you use this form of bias and like it?
thanks,
robert
