I was just checking this thread, the web site;   www.aerco.net was working last night and today it is not working.  Also, the emails bounce back too.

Anyone know what is up?

Works for me today.  Email worked on Monday...  I know there was a major network link down in the northeast US earlier this week, maybe there's some DNS server hangover or something else related.

Have you tested a full discharge cycle?  You might want to before you rely on it lasting 24 hours.

I have not, and am generally pretty OCD about recharging after use.  My batteries usually are on the charger before I pass out after a show.

I'll bet with its light draw, however, that you can get some serious run-time out of 8000mah.

The draw is light.  I have run three 9V duracell ultras inside the Aerco and got close to 10 hours run time.  Each duracell is approximately 500 mah (1500mah total).  A Walmart battery  its about 6000mah.

Just thought I'd try again.  Anyone tried rechargeable 9V in the Aerco?  I'm not looking forward to burning through 9V batteries at three times the rate I am right now...

I will when I get my MP2.  It will probably be a month or two from now...

IPower's 9V lithium rechargeables look like the bee's knees.

Nice find.  Here are the specs from the distributors website:

It appears to be an 8.4 V battery.

Li-Polymer 9V (8.4V) 500mAh, min. 470mAh, (Hi-Rate mode: min. 415mAh)

I didn't realise the typical alkaline 9V actually produces less than 9V:

I noticed ipowerus make a 9V recharchable that discharges at greater than 9V throughout most of its cycle...

I think the 8.4 volts would produce about 46 volts of phantom with the AERCO.  It depends on how much voltage they produce under load - it might drop further.


Right, so it might be more advantageous to use these?

I just found out that my AERCO still has several weeks before being finished. I was hoping to have it for next weekend. Hopefully I made the right choice here, as I had to pass up a couple of V2's already!

you made a great choice...
V2s come and go..., your aerco will be a hot item should you decide to sell it.

really?

i would say just the opposite (not as a pre choice but the availability) -
the aerco is a great pre but you can still get one custom made for the price a used V2 goes for if/when they come available
