3. Loading the Batteries The T50 needs batteries to power it. Use two new penlight (size AA, 1.5V) batteries of the same brand. We recommend Alkaline-manganese (LR6) batteries for longer battery life. Carbon-zinc batteries may also be used, but their life is shorter. DO NOT use Ni-Cd batteries. Load the batteries so that their Push the battery chamber cover opening latch.
