Obs-5+Utility Software; Software Installation; Battery Installation: A) Endcap Removal, B) Wiping, C) Cable Disconnect, And D) Battery Contact - Campbell OBS-5+ Operator's Manual

For extended deployment time, lithium batteries are a good alternative to
alkaline batteries. Campbell Scientific sells a C-cell-sized battery spacer
(pn 21905) that allows lithium C-cell batteries to be used with the OBS-5+.
Lithium C-cell batteries have a higher voltage than their alkaline counterparts,
necessitating the spacer. Campbell Scientific does not sell lithium C-cell
batteries.
