    • Is it possible to use the eQ-3 devices with rechargeable batteries instead of standard batteries?

      Generally, this is possible. But, however, the degree of self-discharge is considerably higher for rechargeable batteries (especially cheap batteries) than for standard batteries. While standard batteries hold their charge for several years (depending on manufacturer and type), rechargeable batteries are discharged within few weeks or months, even without using. This reduces the benefits of rechargeable batteries that much, that most of our clients prefer using standard batteries.
