Lithium AA batteries in FG grip?

<p>Since the grip was designed so long ago, I'm wondering about the safety of using lithiums in it. I use the grip on a Pentax ZX-L body, on occasion. The MZ-S employs a different grip, which does accept lithiums. A set of new lithiums would last a long time. Also, I replace the lithiums I use in a flash unit when the flash recycle gets slow. There is often still plenty of juice left for other purposes, so I put them aside for various devices.</p>

<p>I'll go out on a limb and say yes. The ZX-L takes CR2 lithiums in the body, yes? Lithiums in the grip would seem to me to be no different.</p>

<p>Thanks, Zane. That does sound logical.</p>
