2.2 Power supply
2.2.1 Suitable batteries
The mecablitz can be operated with any of the
following batteries:
• 4 NiCad batteries, type IEC KR 15/51 (KR6,
size AA). They permit very fast recycling and
are economical in use because they are rechar-
geable.
• 4 nickel-metal-hydride batteries, type IEC HR6
(size AA). They have a significantly higher
capacity than NiCad batteries and are less
harmful to the environment (no cadmium).
• 4 alkaline-manganese dry-cell batteries, type IEC
LR6 (size AA/AM3). Maintenance-free power
source for moderate power requirements.
• 4 lithium batteries, type IEC FR6 L91 (size AA).
Maintenance-free high-capacity power source
with a low self-discharge rate.
Remove the batteries from the mecablitz if it
is not going to be used for an extended
period of time.
