jason porter Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Hi, I can't seem to get either of my mixers (Mix-Pre & 302) to power up using Powerex AA batteries (2700mah, rechargeables) Alkalines are fine. I keep fresh batteries in the internal tube as backup, but use external power normally. Has anyone else experienced this? -JP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPSharman Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Hmmm, I use rechargeable batteries in my 302 all the time. Some 2200mah and some 2650mah. Since these batteries are typically of lower voltage, maybe that's a problem. I think the 302 has a setting to affect your low voltage shut-off. Perhaps it does not think there is enough voltage to run your unit? Just a guess. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan H. Chang Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Have you checked or measured the voltages on your AA batteries? I use AA batteries, both alkaline and rechargeables, all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason porter Posted October 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Fresh off the charger, they (2500mah battery) read 1.408v, with no load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
