Best battery type for Nagra PL-P


Has anyone tried to replace the factory provided eight D-cells with another non-Nagra provided battery. NiCd, NiMH etc. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Hello, As Nagra's Service Manager and product specialist for the US, wish to point out something: the PL-P is designed to stay plugged into the PLP-CCC3 power supply at all times during which the batteries will always be charging during use. It was never designed to run exclusively using batteries with external DC detached. (In fact the longest I have heard a PL-P run off batteries is but a few hours, most for less than one hour).

Also, the battery sticks are 4 standard D-Cell batteries, spot welded and heat shrinked, your local Batteries Plus can make two sets for you. Your choice NiMh or NiCd.
