Battery Behaviour - Minelab x-terra 305 Instruction Manual

BATTERY BEHAVIOUR

68
The X‑TERRA is capable of using different types
of AA batteries:
1.5V Alkaline
1.5V Carbon
1.5V Lithium (non‑rechargeable)
1.2V NiMH (rechargeable)
1.2V NiCad (rechargeable)
The adjacent graph is a representation of how
two types of batteries may discharge over
time. How the detector is used will affect how
long the batteries last for.
Rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries will
give a combined voltage above 8V and
therefore cannot be used with the X‑TERRA
When the detector battery is low, the speaker
volume limit will be reduced, to save battery
power and extend detecting time. The
headphone volume is not affected.
Overvoltage
If the battery voltage is too high,
(above 8 V) the battery icon will flash
and the detector will shut down.
Full
2 black segments inside the outline.
Half
1 black segment inside the outline.
Low
The icon will begin to flash for a
period of time and there will be audio
announcements every 60 seconds
before the detector finally shuts down.
