BATTERIES
The T
uses four AA batteries. Use ALKALINE batteries for best performance. Rechargeable
batteries may be used. Expect 40 hours of service in the field with one set of ALKALINE
2+
batteries.
If you use rechargeable batteries, good-quality NiMH (nickel-metal–hydride) batteries are
recommended. They will usually deliver over 25 hours of service without recharging, but when
they start running low, they die suddenly with little warning.
Always install batteries which are of the same type and the same state of charge. Otherwise
battery life will be determined by the weakest battery, as the good batteries cannot deliver their
power with a dead battery blocking the current.
All 4 batteries are installed with the positive terminals facing upward.

ARMREST
The armrest WIDTH and POSITION are both adjustable.
To best stabilize the detector to your arm and body movement, squeeze the sides of the
Armrest Width:
armrest around your forearm. For a very secure fit, some users prefer to bend the
armrest in tightly against the forearm such that you pry the sides loose each time you
place your arm into the armrest.
