patterdale moocher 10 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Hi just got hold of an ortovox collar but I have trieda few new batteries in it LR1 is this the right battery and is it supposed to flash 6 times when you turn it on (Ein) and what is (Aus) is that off.when I put a new LR1 duracell battery in it don't flash at all when turned to Ein. Also are the readings the same using a B+F box or is it 1metre=?? Any help please gents Quote Link to post
DottyDoo 500 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 when ye put it in, an turn the switch to on it is ment to flash mate. every flash indicates 10 hours life in sure.... im pretty sure that lr1 is the right batttery, have ye tried the battery in a tester??? for every 1.0 it reads on yer bellman pieps box, it will be more like 18 inch in depth to the orto collar if that makes sense..........

patterdale moocher 10 Posted February 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks mate I have bought 3 new batteries today from different shops 1 battery it flashes 5times and starts going dimmer after 3 flashes the other 2 batteries (duracell) don't even flash when turned on. So is it 1metre =18" 2metre=36" 3metre=54" and so on-thanks Quote Link to post
DottyDoo 500 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) yip mate, if ye wanna get technical, imn sure the 1st 1.0 was actually 24' an the rest there after was 18' per 1.0 you will get used to it........... as far as the batterys are concerened im sure the last few flashes are never as bright as the 1st few, an im sure if ye put a battery in an take it back out, its summat like 10 mins ye have to wait before the battery lights indicates again, so just leave a while before tryin another battery Edited February 17, 2011 by DottyDoo Quote Link to post
