Has anybody been able to fit a 9.6v in the battery compartment? If you have, then which brand did you use?

9.6v wouldn't fit. I wouldn't recommend using a 9.6v with this regardless. It's designed for 8.4v, using a higher voltage could burn out the gear box.

I used the Laza Battery (great battery) that was recommended for it. Check out that battery and see if it is the same size.

No you may want to buy a 12v adapter but that's easy to find from anywhere. Anyone should fit. You will need a 9v battery for now but that's it. They don't last long so I bought an adapter after

For the receiver, yep, they devour 9volts. I used to get about a week out mine before i plugged them in.... newer models (wrl-b?) Have a 9v socket so you can plug them in. I''ve also wired a 9v battery connector (from radio shack) to a power supply (red neck engineering) for a unit that didn't come so equipped. I use mine for varmit sensors and don't have much of a need to go moblie for long periods, so it works for me. As for the sensors, I''ve picked up lithium ion rechargables from Amazon... My sensors can run for 3-4 weeks... Happy hunting!...

I have a Pavillion DV6-6190us. As I wrote, the fit is a bit tight and requires a little force and pulling the battery release slider to the side. But once it's in, it wirks perfectly (3 months now).DV6 has two flavors. If yours is DV6-6xxx, this is the one for you. If it is DV6-1xxx,2xxx,3xxx, you should probably get a different one.

I have this 9.6V battery in a Tyco RC Mutator car...it also fits an air boat that I once had. The boat had inflatable rubber pontoons on each side...this battery lasts forever on just one charge

hello i didn't use that item, because it won't accept back up batteries, i still have it. probably it will replace the other one since it is same brand

Yes, my wife bought one. The 9V battery is impossible to snap into place, and it chirps without ceasing. The battery door does not hold it in contact. It is going back.

I have lacrosse AA rechargable batteries and Eneloop batteries, both with higher capacities (I think 2500mH). I tried to use both and was unable too because the rechargable batteries are just barely too big. I did successfully shove one in, had a horrible time getting it back out and did not try again. I would guess that there are brands and/or possibly lower capacity rechargable so that are just a tad smaller than mine that do fit. This is why you are seeing different opinions.

You have to pry open the bottom portion of the unit itself to replace the 9V battery. I used a very small screwdriver to pry open the "tight" lid.

I have this scale and works great with the 9 volt battery, Be sure the battery is OK and is new. did you tried with a new battery? Take in account the weight limit of the scale too. If you are not going to use the scale, ensure remove the battery to extend the life of it.

I only use the 9.6V, but apparently the charger will handle the full range of batteries. The red light to start would be normal if it stays on solid; if it flashes, it still needs a little charge.

yes I did. Be very careful to not totally separate the two pieces. The battery will fit in just be gentle.

I am using the same battery with my Latitude E6410. In actual sense, the length is same, but a bit wider, I guess it's because it is 9cell, and this makes it protrude a little at the back, but it's not a problem. But getting it to sit perfectly in the battery compartment the first time was kind of challenging. I think the problem has to do with some of the fitting extensions in the battery, and you may need to apply slight pressure and adjustment to get it to sit properly. Aside this, it is fine.

My husband is an Electrician and he said it would be a 9v- just keep the receipt lol

i have no idea if there is a 9volt battery in the unit. the pkg and instructions does not mention anything about a battery comming in the unit. you have to unscrew the unit very carefully or else you will easily strip and never get them off. find a jewlers screwdriver set. also, find a free image or photo site that you can post an image of the problem.
