Batteries
Reddy can be used under battery power. The instrument is designed with two battery cradles under the
protective battery compartment door, but can be powered by a single battery. Reddy uses Li204SX-7800
lithium-ion rechargeable batteries from Emerging Power, which do not suffer from the memory effect
affecting previous generations of batteries.
Warning
Whenever carrying Reddy in its transport case, remove the batteries from the instrument and make
sure that they cannot come in contact during transport, as this poses a significant fire and explosion
hazard.
When carrying Reddy, it is the user’s responsibility to make sure that the safety precautions used are in
accordance with the local department of transportation (or equivalent governing body) rules and
regulations.
Reddy’s transport case comes with two slots, fitted to receive the batteries when removed from the
instrument.
Note
Make sure that you do not replace the batteries by batteries other than Li204X-7800 lithium-ion
rechargeable batteries from Emerging Power. Contact your Eddyfi representative for more information
about pricing and availability or replacement batteries.
