I suspect I already know the answer to this one, but just want to check...

Can I power the T1 IFB base station with two 9v batteries tied together to
output 18v? I imagine it is never really 18v no matter how new the
batteries are, and won't be a problem.

Gotta make this whole thing VERY PORTABLE for a week long job!!!

many thanks...

cleve

Make life easier and rent a T2 from Darrell. Then again he may be using them
for Walker.

Hi Cleve,
The voltage will be OK but the 170mA drain is going to kill those 9
Volts pretty fast. You could series-parallel 4 batteries and get 3
hours or so of run time.
Best Regards,
Larry Fisher
