White’s Electronics Matrix 100 - Color - Manual (Page 11)

11 888-778-9010 www.whiteselectronics.com
One 9V battery is included with the Matrix 100. Use a 9V-alkaline,
9V-lithium-manganese dioxide, or externally charged 9V-battery. If the battery
is fresh or recently recharged (more than 7V), the LED next to the ON/OFF
button will produce a green light. If the battery is discharged (less than 7V)
the LED will flash a yellow light and it is recommended that you replace the
battery.
Battery Life
Based upon measurements, battery life for a 600 mA-hour alkaline battery at
room temperature is:
Battery life is doubled with the 1200 mA-hour lithium-manganese dioxide
batteries .
Rechargeable 9V batteries can also be used, but battery life per charge
is typically much shorter than the life of 9V-alkaline batteries, and
depends upon the battery type and the battery recharging system.
WARNING
DO NOT use the earbud jack as a recharging port!
Use of the earbud jack as a recharging port may
damage the Matrix 100 or the battery charger,
and will void the warranty.
Battery Temperature Ratings
Alkaline batteries are rated by the following manufacturer:
Energizer -18°C to 55°C (0°F to 130°F)
Panasonic -20°C to 54°C (-4°F to 130°F)
Lithium-manganese dioxide batteries are rated by the following
manufacturer:
Duracell -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F)
Energizer -40°C to 60°C (-40°F to 140°F)
Ultralife -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F)
Manufacturer’s ratings are based upon operating loads quite different from
the Matrix 100, so it is possible to have different results.
* For information about special batteries that will operate at
temperatures as low as -40°C contact White’s Electronics, Inc.
