Batteries

• Half of all warranty issues can be resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate
voltage.
• We suggest name brand alkaline batteries for indoor displays such as Digital Atomic
Clocks.
• Use batteries dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries dated
earlier than six years from now may still work but may be unstable in performance.
• Alkaline batteries manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years in the
future. Battery technology has improved, and batteries will maintain voltage longer in
storage. However, the environment the batteries reside in for 10 years can deplete the
power.
• Good name brand batteries make less noise, which reduces the chance of RF (radio
frequency) interference from the battery compartment. A minimum voltage of 1.48V for
each battery is necessary for proper performance.
• Outdoor Transmitters: Use Alkaline batteries (or Lithium for temperatures below -
20°F/-28.8°C)
• Clock: Use Alkaline batteries. Overpowered or underpowered batteries may cause
loss of indoor readings, missing segments, dim display etc.
