Hi I've just bought Lacuna Satellite meter on Ebay The seller reckons it would benefit from a new battery - which in Ebay Anyone know what sort it is, is it a generic type battery or is it special to type? Outside of the manufacturer, where can I get replacements and how much do I expect to pay? Cheers Nick | ||

Blog Entries: 5 My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser. | I think that it may be a purpose made battery pack, comprising of several (probably 8) AA batteries connected together, the Premier meter battery pack certainly is. Alltrade do a fixed price service on the units and this includes a battery pack, don't know how much it would be separately though. | ||

You will need a good soldering iron as the batteries dissipate the heat. Good luck | ||
