I've got a moisture detector that takes a 9v battery, and it says not to use an alkaline battery. Never seen that type of warning before. Anyone know why an alkaline battery is not recommended?
Thanks.
I know that different battery materials can have slightly different
voltage but nominally alkaline and carbon-zinc are the same.
They're a different size, however. iirc carbon-zinc are shorter.
I wonder if the writer of the instruction was
having a bad day. Might been meant to write
to use only alkaline battery?
