The Surrette 2v L16 is one single cell built in a case the size of a standard L16. I've seen other 2v products come out which are really just three 2v cells with internal parallel bus bars, rather than the standard series connections. That means you don't get the real benefits of using larger cells, just fewer interconnects. Try counting the caps.
This has been a great string (no pun intended!)
