Re: [CZsynth] RA3 Cartridge Battery

2012-03-23 by 350ypvs@googlemail.com

The battery used in the RA3 is a Lithium type of 'button' battery - BR2016
or CR2016. They are available on places like Ebay for very little:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/220888069773

Unfortunately I can't make my RA3 to work with my 101, though it works fine
with my CZ3000 (haven't tried it on my CZ1 yet). I thought the battery may
have been flat, but even after changing it (hence the information above),
it still won't work with the 101. If I insert the cartridge into the 101
and switch it on, it locks up and emits a continuous drone. It does the
same when tried with a friend's 1000.

A shame as I could really do with those extra (and saved after switch off)
patches on the cartridge :-(
