3.2 Alkaline Battery Adapter
An alkaline battery adapter is supplied with each MultiRAE
PLUS kit. It accepts four AA size alkaline batteries and can
be used in place of the Li ion or NiCd battery pack to
provide approximately 12-14 hours of operation. The
adapter is intended to be used in emergency situations when
there is no time to charge the rechargeable batteries.
