I forgot, you also obviously have to do the diode mod before putting in a non rechargable battery. Details are on the net but you probably have them already.

Solder in any flat CR type battery + holder (costs pence) and you are back and functioning. I cut out the varta time bomb, repaired 1 trace, soldered in a new IC and flat batter holder (can be tight so will need the right angle) and a CR-2032 or equiv and it works fine.

> Hello, I've just come across a sweat deal on a Polysix. It's in great shape, has the original box, pedals everything. It came from a storage unit auction and honestly it looks like it was sealed up in a time capsule for the last 20 or so years.

So my question is can i simply remove this battery until i can have it replaced with a newer battery and will my polysix still function in manual with the battery out. I think it will i just want to be careful with this.
