Country Joe 1,411 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Stopped being a Dinosaur, and have purchased a Mark 3m finder, could you helpful Peeps out there, advise me on the best battery make, and number for receiver and collars. Cheers, CJ. Quote Link to post
lksopener 105 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Duracell 9v for the box. For the collars I believe it's 394 batteries and the brand you want is rayovac that come with the collars. Also if your tempted by another battery brand, I've heard Sony are good but you want silver oxide battery's under no circumstances use alkaline. Quote Link to post
Country Joe 1,411 Posted December 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Thanks for that, do I ask for Rayovac silver oxide? and are Rayovac easily obtained, Supermarkets ect. Does batteries come with the kit? Quote Link to post
mike1458 14 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Ebay is the best place to buy 394 batteries from. Or amazon, about 90p each I think. Mike Quote Link to post
bobcullen79 1,495 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Batteries do come with the kit. The collars take two, rayovac 394. "Do Not use zinc air types. Other popular equivalents are sr9365w,sr936,v394,gp394,d394,sr45." Just copied this from my new collar instructions. hope it helps. Quote Link to post
