Title: Rayovac batteries ...don't buy em!
Post by: Edward on December 16, 2011, 01:46:23 PM

For whatever lame reason, a Rayovac 9v does not fit well in the battery compartment (frustrating as I found out when I found I had a dead battery during sound check, and all we had were Rayovacs ...ugh!!!).   It's Duracells or Eveready for me!  And don't forget to pack a spare, doh :)

DuracellS are my favorite.  They go on forever!

i thought that, at first, it was because they didn't last -
i don't imagine that a new battery would help much if it didn't fit :(

thanks for the 'head's up' on this, Edward

just wondering what you ended up doing -
hopefully you were able to swap out a good battery from
something else, where the Ray-O-Vac's fit wasn't an issue
