[A2coins]

Can you use non alkaline batteries with at pro the Duracell last 30 percent longer batteries never thought about it but my friends bought me a 30 pack of these any thoughts or does it matter?? Anyway I found two wheats today no pics they are to dark to even read the dates... I have found so many wheats I feel like I'm harvesting a wheat farm I'm going to throw on my Nel Attack coil and see if that helps find the silver Thanks for looking at my post!!!

Until someone pipes in - I searched

and found...

I put new batteries in my MDer today and when i turned it on and used it for a few minutes i noticed the speaker had gotton very low.So i was worrying that the speaker was faulty and it would have to be replaced or water had gotton to the housing I tried to figure it out for at least 15 minutes then i finally did...................in my rush to get out MDing i had gotton NON alkaline batteries! whewwwwww !!!! I thought i was in trouble !!! LOL so i went to the store and got the good ole alkalines and she sounded off just fine ! Moral of the story ALWAYS look before you buy ! Its advice to live on !

Now, my AT PRO Owner's Manual ONLY states: It is best to use quality alkaline batteries. When changing batteries, be sure to replace with all new batteries for optimum performance. It doesn't say not to use - just says it is best to use...

Me - always use what the vendor suggests just in case I have a problem and want to get it serviced - I am sure a member(s) will pipe in shortly.

Stay on top of those wheat pennies, the silver will show up sooner or later.

They work like a champ in mine.Tried rechargable and hated them just check to make sure no leaks and if you go in water make sure your O ring is lubed so they don't get wet.

They might not last as long but they are not going to hurt anything. I use alkaline from family dollar. Twenty four pack for 8 bucks. Get about twenty hours per four and I change them shortly after they show half strength.

I have 2 sets of 4 rechargeable batteries that I use in my AT Pro. It saves a lot of money and they work well and last quite a while when just using the headphones. I bought mine with a charger on EBay. I also don't see why standard batteries wouldn't work O.K.

Same here- have a 12 (or is it 18) pak of free-bees AA from harbor freight - I threw in the trunk....I guess as long as dont leave them in the pro for a period of time to avoid leaks?
