Answer:
The KTI16027001NRT4 operates on two standard 1.5V D-size dry batteries (they are not included), such as alkaline or heavy-duty cells. The baton requires the batteries (they are not included) to be loaded into the handle compartment prior to deployment.
The KTI16027001NRT4 utilizes non-rechargeable dry cell power:
- Battery Requirement: Two (2) standard D-size batteries (they are not included).
- Chemistry Compatibility: Compatible with commercial 1.5V D-cell alkaline or heavy-duty zinc-carbon batteries (they are not included).
- Installation: Unscrew the threaded bottom end-cap of the handle, insert two D-size batteries (they are not included) oriented according to polarity markings, and securely retighten the end-cap before operation.
- Storage Maintenance: If storing the traffic baton for extended off-season periods, remove the batteries (they are not included) to prevent electrolyte leakage and terminal corrosion.
