Re: [vintagesynthrepair] Re: Roland TB303 Save The Presets....

Hi Shayne,

I know that when you put c-cell batteries in the Bassline Line the presets
are safe. The big problem is that C-cell batteries could produce an acid
liquide who could burn the inside.....

This is the reason why a mod is available to replace the c-cell by a lithium
batterie : more safety...

Thx for your help,

Regards

Alexandre
