What's this about AA batteries? Did the meter kit change?


Mine came with AAA holders. Something about there being a confusion about
using a PP3 in the instructions. I don't like AAA unless size matters as
in the UK they cost the same as AA. So I changed to AA since I had holders
'in stock' ;-)

Mine's a few years old now, but came with a standard 9v battery holder.
Mind, I did have to complain to Bob about poor battery life. My first
battery only lasted about 2 years ... !!
