[QUOTE="blisters, post: 256937, member: 4992"] I wouldn't be using the 12v battery in your detector even if it's regulated. Capacity wise a 6v will be greater and more robust for the same size plus you'd also get large power losses converting 12v to 6v. I'd buy a second 6v battery of the correct size instead. Jon Edit: plus with anything you buy if someone has modified it then you really should understand what and why they've done the mod and go through it thoroughly to make sure it's done properly. The last thing you want to see is smoke 8.( [/QUOTE]
