sold at the really cheap 99 cent stores, and called 'heavy duty'
instead of alkaline. But most people don't buy them anymore. Maybe
because the equipment uses AA cells, and the cheap zinc-carbon AA
cells are too low a capacity for the smaller equipment.
But the carbon rods for welding are coated with copper, I believe.
that might cause a problem.

Yeah, carbons from a C or D cell are not _that_ hard to find, they'reDon Bruder wrote:
Betcha I can come up with a battery you can tear apart to get a carbon

Carbon-zincs are still around, and can be had from anyplace that sells
almost any brand other than Energizer or Duracell.
Yup!! and if for some silly reason you can't find a battery, you should
be able to get carbon rods from a welding supply house. They use them as
electrodes in carbon arc welding attachments for arc welders.
