Default Re: Cheap PP9 Batteries at Screwfix

Even alkaline PP3 batteries don't seem to last long in radios designed for the PP9 and some kind of adapter is required. The PP3 is readily available at ok prices. The same is not true of the PP9.

Can't find Tim's £2.95 (ex VAT) PP9 on CPC's website so perhaps it's only available in the Preston store or maybe I've just not managed to manipulate Google correctly.

I still think Screwfix's out of date stock is worth considering for immediate use. Still available at £1.94 via 'click and collect'.
