Rebel73153 91 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I figure they should run at 12V, right? My AA battery pack is actually a bit over 13V with the 1.5V rechargeable batteries i use, but my rechargeable battery pack that came with the Monster is only charging to 8.15 V. What do they normally run?. I guess when Bill gets some more AA battery holders in i will get 1 or 2 and more of the 1.5V rechargeable batteries if my rechargeable battery pack is bad.

Grubstake What a great idea. Think of the depth! You could sit at home and beep nuggets on the mountain. The first real LRL. Keep a few fire extinguishers handy! Link to post Share on other sites
grubstake 655 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Most detectors run on 12 DC, But they all have a regulator in them, thats why you can run rechageables, at a higher, voltage, the built in regulator cuts it down. Grubstake Link to post Share on other sites
homefire 2,579 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Yep, the battery requirement is only the NOMINAL voltage. A regulator is taking it down to some steady working voltage. Link to post Share on other sites
