For the one-hundred sixteenth edition of the GeoGearHeads we revisit the subject of batteries (see Beta.01 and Beta.02 for the first two). The Bad Cop and DarrylW4 started with some information about Heavy Duty, Alkaline, Lithium, NiCd, NiMH, and LSD NiMH AA and AAA batteries. Then they looked at a question from Wet_Coaster about NiMH performance in cold weather. There were a couple of resources from Panasonic and a PDF by Boguslaw Pierozynski with some helpful information. LANMonkey also asked about the life and charging of NiHM batteries. They then tackled the rechargeable batteries for mobile devices – LiOn, LiPo, and Lead-Acid. Some helpful tips were shared from Lifehacker and more information is available from Battery University. They wrapped the show up talking a little about fuel cells and the Brunton Hydrogen Reactor.

For the one-hundred eighth edition of the GeoGearHeads John Robb returns to talk about lasers and geocaching. On his fourth appearance, John Robb (of Cache At Night who caches under teamvoyagr) shares some of the issues to consider when attempting a laser-based geocache, advantages, disadvantages, and some examples. John's first laser cache was "After Dark Duet" (GC24MXZ) which lead him and his partner to create "BFL Boot Camp V - Alien MacGyver" (GC2EYDW). So other example laser caches are "BFL VI - ...in a galaxy far, far away" (GC35FHF) and "BFL 7: Sin - Blinded By The Light" (GC40V3B). He also provided the "Angular Size Calculator" page for helping calculate errors. A couple of caches created with their Laser Loci are "Knights Templar" (GC4Q90W) and "GAG20 - Loki (NIGHT CACHE)" (GC4NWN9). Thanks to StevensAdInfinitum and Two_Drews for their audio feedback used in this episode.

For the ninety-eighth edition of the GeoGearHeads The Bad Cop and DarrylW4 discuss geocaching and space. This discussion was prompted by the "Geocaching in Space" events and hype from Groundspeak marking the return of Geocaching to space (Rick Mastracchio carried "International Space Station Travel Bug II by the 5th Grade Class of Chase Elementary School-Waterbury, CT" to the International Space Station). The Bad Cop attended the "Geocaching in Space - A Geocaching HQ Event!" event at the Pacific Science Center, hosted by Geocaching HQ. The Bad Cop and DarrylW4 talked about ways for civilians to get into space through Virgin Galactic, Novaspace, XCOR Aerospace, Armadillo Aerospace, and World View Enterprises. None of those options will get you to the "International Space Station" (GC1BE91) cache, and only seven civilians have flown to the ISS. There are geocaches and traveler here on Earth that have been to space. On GGH Beta.27: Orbiting Cache I we spoke with e6c about his caches launched into space – "PINELAND: Sputnik 2010: A Geocache Odyssey" (GC2JPJJ) and "PINELAND: LEIF MMXII: Geocache From Space!!" (GC3P578) – and some travelers (including our own Cache-A-Maniacs in Space!). Also mentioned was Gogo's partnership with Glympse for in-air location sharing and Gogo Text & Talk.

Thanks to Listener "Giz" for his voicemail on how he promoted the GeoGearHeads.
