Title: Recharagable battery recommendation for PartyQ
Post by: jdefran on June 21, 2017, 04:05:38 AM
I've read that some rechargeable batteries have short nipples and cause a poor connection in the PartyQ.

Before ordering batteries, does anyone have experience with this?

What a question:  I've never had a problem with short nipples (or medium length nipples, or long nipples) or any   ...   well you get the idea.  Pardon the digression, but I'm under medication after having a tooth pulled today :(

I modified my PartyQ to run off USB or 120v.  I couldn't trust the batteries on long or overnight smokes.  Especially during cold weather.
