$2.50 battery find-worth the trouble?

Hey Guys
had to go to Mr. Waltons last night for diapers and formula. As I was exiting I had to go through the “clearance” section.

It was there I found WestCoastChoppers 9.6v Battery packs for $2.50 each. These are labled as 1600MiliAmp Hours and are NiMH packs.

They measure 4.5" X 2.25" X .75"
They remind me of a box of Marlboro 100’s.

I have a pic if you are interested-thing is I have no charger-called the manfu, they say Radio Shack has 1 that will work-well see this afternoon.

Do you think this battery would work in LS trains? Is the 1600mAH enough for a decent amout of running?

Local Wal Mart has a ton of them and I can go get more b4 they are gone.

lemmie know
thanks
