The Low Volta Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 that's the one I use (the battery) but I wouldn't buy it off ebay unless I really had toI bought mine new in a shop for €7 (which would be +/-£4,7) which is lower than the listed price (including shipping) so just have a look at your regular electronics shop (or photo-shop as these are also used in cameras etc)best is to get two with a charger as that will be better on the batteries and reduces the chance of it swelling inside the recorder and damaging it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Bass_Man Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) Hi I need to buy an external AA battery case for my nh900. I left my old one on a bus while in Turin - I live in Leeds, UK!Can anyone help? I've looked on Ebay but not seen any.CheersAs far as I can see, all (well at the very least, most) of Sony's units which use a "gumstick" battery, and have a 3V external supply jack, and externall AA battery case cabability use compatible AA battery cases.I think the emphasis must be on 3V, as the MZ-N10 for instance, which doesn't use a gumstick battery uses a 6V external supply but has a "special" AA battery box.If you didn't know this, it may improve your chances of finding one on EBay. (I think I have seen them in the past ...).So one for MZ-N1, MZ-N707, MZ-N710, MZ-R900, MZ-N910, etc will more than likely work with your NH-900.Hope this helps!P.S. this photo shows the difference (or rather the lack of difference) between the "business end" of the NH900 and that of an N710 Edited January 21, 2006 by Mr_Bass_Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundalike Posted January 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 Thanks for the help guys, much appreciated.I guess I'll just have to keep looking on ebay for the external battery case. It's so much more convenient for things like festivals where there's no access to mains power - I just take a bag of fully charged AAs and that's it. I could do the same with gumsticks I suppose, but they're much more expensive to replace. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
