Title: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: emelie on August 25, 2013, 12:04:32 PM Hi, where can I buy a battery for my slot online. It says Varta 3.6v 140 mah on it. I tried Radioshack no luck. I live on the bayou so we don't have any specialty stores here really. I looked it up online but I keep getting results that say 3.6 150mah instead of 140 mah.
Thanks in advance :) Em Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: rickhunter on August 25, 2013, 12:40:18 PM With batteries the mah rating is capacity. You can use it as long as it has the same voltage. It will probably last longer being 1.5 mah.

Are you sure you need that battery? Some boards can do without it? Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: emelie on August 25, 2013, 12:56:06 PM After it said netplex link down, I turned the key and it said main battery low so I'm assuming that's the battery I need?
Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: proten on August 25, 2013, 01:19:48 PM There is a round watch type battery on
the lower board that is the main one. The green one is the tattle tell battery. Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: emelie on August 25, 2013, 01:24:49 PM Ahhh, I see one that says Panasonic CR2354 then 3V underneath. This is it, right?
Thanks so much!!! I would have ordered the wrong part lol Em :) Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: proten on August 25, 2013, 01:31:52 PM Can you tell if its soldered to the board or is it in a battery holder?
If you post a picture we can tell you. Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: emelie on August 25, 2013, 01:40:23 PM it's in some kind of holder, i was able to pop it out. it's round like a watch battery
Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: BR549 Auto Sales on August 25, 2013, 01:44:38 PM There is a chain of stores called Battery Source, they will have that battery and they will even solder it onto your board if you are not comfortable doing it yourself, I believe the battery cost @ 6.00 there and they don't charge to solder it on for you
Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: proten on August 25, 2013, 02:06:12 PM Then you can pick one up where ever you buy battery.
Just make sure its a CR2354. Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: cowboygames on August 25, 2013, 05:19:03 PM And you have a 1270 enhanced MPU so get the green battery also. You'll need it
Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: emelie on August 25, 2013, 07:09:27 PM you're talking about that varta battery cowboy? i guess i'll have to order that one.
Title: Re: Where can I buy this battery online? Post by: cowboygames on August 25, 2013, 08:56:47 PM Yeah, on your board that battery has to work also. It is rechargeable and does so when the machine is turned on, so you might try training the machine on and leave it on for a few hours then recheck the voltage on that one. If it will recharge and hold you may be able to get by with just the 2354 battery for the time being. If not then go ahead and order one of those. Biggest thing to remember here is that the longer your machine sits turned off unused, the faster BOTH of those batteries will go dead
