Setting the Battery Type
This menu item allows you to select between alkaline and Ni-MH batteries.
Since the discharge characteristics of alkaline and Ni-MH batteries are
different, the EAGLE 2 uses this setting to ensure that the low battery
warning is in effect long enough before a dead battery alarm to allow the user
to change the batteries without a dead battery alarm occurring. This setting
has no effect on battery charging.

oxygen, H
