1.6.3 Various Hardware Features
The following sections describe various hardware features.
1.6.3.1 Battery Compartment
The Magna-Mike 8600 battery compartment cover allows you to quickly access the
optional battery (or AA batteries in optional battery holder) without the need for
tools. Two thumb screws on the battery compartment cover secure it to the instrument
case and ensure the compartment is sealed.
The battery compartment cover also has a small hole in the bottom center area that is
covered on the inside by an environmentally sealed membrane vent. This vent is a
safety feature that is required in the event that the instrument battery fails and emits
gas. This vent must not be punctured.
