BATTERY INFORMATION
General
Improper battery selection, use, installation and care are the cause of numerous
wireless system failures.
Alkaline Batteries: Alkaline batteries such as Mallory’s DURACELL or
Eveready’s ENERGIZER provide the most reliable operation in wireless transceiv-
ers. The use of low cost carbon-zinc batteries is NOT recommended.
Nickel-Cadmium Batteries: These batteries can save you money in the long run,
as they can be recharged, but they can also cause disappointing wireless perfor-
mance. If you want to use rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries you must select a
heavy duty nickel-cadmium (NEDA 10015 or equivalent)
