Battery Replacement - Lectrosonics H187 Quick Start Manual

Battery Replacement

The H187 transmitter is powered by a standard alkaline of Li Polymer rechar‑
gable 9 Volt battery. It is important that you use ONLY these battery types for
longest life. Standard zinc‑carbon batteries marked "heavy duty" or "long‑
lasting" are not adequate. They will provide only about 4 hours of operation.
Similarly, nicad rechargeable batteries only give 4 hours of operation, and
will also run down quite abruptly. Alkaline batteries provide about 14 hours of
operation.
To open the battery compartment, press outward on the cover door in the
direction of the arrow as shown in the drawing. Only slight, sliding pressure is
needed to open and close the battery door.
Swing the door open and take note of the polarity marked inside showing the
location of the positive (+) and negative (‑) terminals. Insert the battery and
close the cover by pressing in and across, reversing the opening procedure
outlined above. Note that the battery door will NOT close if the battery is
inserted incorrectly, since the terminals will hit a protective polarity barrier.
