Title: Replacement battery for Nakamichi 300 Mics?
Post by: Boedi-taper on August 04, 2009, 08:07:54 PM

Hey Everyone,
I want to replace my batteries for my Nakamichi 300 mics.I currently use Eveready 9 volt Transistor batteries.My local electronics store does not carry them anymore.They googled in a location to order them(Batterycentralmall.com),but I need something on a short(1 1/2 day) notice.Does anyone know an adequate replacement other than the Eveready? The woman at my electronics store said I can order the Eveready through that place I mentioned,but she made it sound like they don't make those batteries anymore,and that Batterycentral has probably just excess inventory of that Eveready battery.Any adequate replacement that I might be able to find locally,even at a Wal-mart or something? Any help greatly appreciated!Thanks!

Radio shack has them, but I still had to order mine

They have express shipping, ends up being some darn expensive batteries though  :)

You can also find them here

Good luck finding them locally.

Thanks for the help! I did try one of the local Radio Shacks and they said they would have to special order them.I think I'll try the other 2 local Radio shacks.Thanks again!

When I had a set of Naks, I was able to get the batteries at my local Batteries Plus store.  If there's one near you it might be worth a call for the 9v transistor batteries.  I think I paid around $7-9 each, but can't remember exactly.

busman mod :P, get mini xlr's on your 9100, no more batteries and some sex actives.  Just an idea

Dave,

Did you try Unicorn Electronics?  I got mine there (in stock), but I think they now have to order.

Dave I will be at Utica, and can bring you a set. I keep an extra around just in case. Let me know.

Dave,

Go to Wellingtonbattery.com, look under specialty batteries, they have the Eveready #206 battery for the Nak 300's.
