2796.0. "AVOCET 50 and new batteries is a pain !!!!!" by CRIME::GENTILI (Rock the CASBAH !!) Sat Jun 18 1994 12:15

    
    Anymore news on the problem with AVOCET 50 and batteries...since
    	I have replaced the original batteries (which have lasted  over
    	one year) any new pair of batteries (yes the right type ie 186 
    	alkaline etc...) only last a max of 2-4 weeks...
    
    I read in previous topics sereval tricks which I have tried but without
    	any success, I was wondering if there was anybody out there with an
    	explanation.

    FWIW,
    Cheapest place to buy replacement batteries for an Avocet 50
    in the GMA area: Spag's (the watch counter).  386 type is 95
    cents ($1 with tax).  kb
