(...) You could get a battery adaptor, that is, a device for putting AAA batteries where AA batteries should go. They're available easily here in the UK - Maplins for example.

(...) It beeps just before it runs out of juice - sadly my batteries keep running low when the RCX is in off mode. I'm right now working on making a set of dummy batteries/internal 9v AC connection. The bottom end of the RCX would easily allow a (...) (26 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
