K409B 10.8v 400mah NiMH 9 cell 2/3 AAA Block Pack
Cell: KAN 400mah 2/3 AAA
Discharge rate: 4amps max.
Size; L 2.00" x W 1.15" x H .76".

i know that it says 10.8v but i think it should be like the excal battery wich says 12v but full charge is about 14v

Hello,

with a 400mah battery You'll run out of steam in 4 hours more or less on the dual field.

Also, normal Ni-mh batteries have a steep decay curve so just after 2 hours you'll probably be at 9volts or less.

You could use LiPo batteries instead but I advise You that, if short-circuited or dropped in water they can explode or take fire.

Should seawater flood inside the DF case You'd be in serious trouble!

Check here and here to see what I mean.

Cheers
Luca

Stick with regular AA batteries!
