Cordless phone battery pack

[Puddin' Man]

I've a RS 5.8ghz cordless phone with a dead battery pack:
D-AA600BX3 DC 3.6V 600mAh

Replacement battery-packs at DC 3.6V aren't too expensive, but I've not seen
any at exactly 600mAh. Is this critical? Would, say, 800mAh work OK? Pardon
my lack of knowledge.

Thx,
P

It will work and theoretically last 33% longer between charges.

Think of mAh as if it were the breaking strength of a rope in pounds.
You want to lift a load that weighs 500 pounds.

The instructions say that the rope should be rated at 600 pounds.

So know let's rephrase your question.

Is a rope that is rated at 800 pounds ok to use?

As that gal from Alaska would say "You betcha"
