Hi, new user here.
After many months of messing around with Tens boxes and the frustration of a never ending "tease" I decided to buy a 2b. Cant wait to get it. at least ill save a fair amount on 9v batteries now as I got the adaptor with it too.
Cheers.

Great stuff! The mains adapter is an essential accessory IMHO. After a short learning curve you are in for a real treat with your new 2B

I don't see why not, but my experience of rechargeable batteries is that they never perform as well as non-rechargeables, and performance tails off during use.

My thinking:
Rechargeable batteries are an emergency solution.
Even normal batteries are not necessarily great.
If at all possible, use that originals power supply or

Re: Just bought the 2B
9v rechargeable batteries are not recommended due to their discharge curve. Anyway 12v is the way to go because of the 30% boost in power output. Either use the mains adapter or look into a 12v rechargeable powerbank if you need portability - viewtopic.php?f=14&t=10054
