Batteries 

 

Explanation: Many problems are resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate 

voltage. Many items sent in under warranty, work when tested with fresh batteries. 

Batteries manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years (or more) in 

the future. Battery technology has improved and batteries will maintain voltage 

longer in storage. However, the environment the batteries reside in for the 10 years 

can deplete the power. 

 

 

A minimum voltage of 1.48V for each battery is necessary for proper 

performance.
