Tip & How-To about Panasonic KX TGA400B Cordless Expansion Handset

Do you have a constant buzzing sound in your handset?

The NiMH batteries used in these phones have a useful life of about 2 years. With only 2.4v at normal operation, the amplifier circuit will start to pick up interference as the voltage drops in an old battery. If you hear a constant buzzing, no matter your location or distance from the base unit, then it's most likely your battery causing the problem. Some phones are more susceptible than others causing the buzzing to start earlier than another phone. Battery Buzz is a good indication to change your battery as soon as possible. As the problem gets worse you will have voice and connection problems. Since transmitting uses the most power, you will be unaware when your voice quality drops dramatically for the people on the other end of the call.

Model #30524

I'm pretty sure that would be a Dantona brand BATT-E30025CL. You can get a good look at it and buy it here: http://www.zbattery.com/2-4V-750mAh-NiMH-Cordless-phone-battery-E200-E300-LH070-3A43C2BRML1P

low battery.very fast

that camera might be from the year 2000 or so ... the NiMH batteries should be way beyond their expected life time .. .you might want to try just regular alkaline batteries (but dont charge them) .. if they hold up reasonably well then you should purchase new NiMH AA batteries ... i can recommend the new "Eneloop" batteries for this .. they are like normal NiMH but stay charged for months or even a year .instead of the few weeks for normal cells .. normal cells have to be charged just before you use them to get the most out of them .. not so with the eneloop .. charge them and use them in 3 months and they are still good ... and they can be charged many more times than normal cells ... obviously i love them .. ... any NiMH AA cell will do but they cost about the same as eneloop .. i doubt that you can get the SM cards for that camera anymore ... so you probably dont wan to put a lot in it ... but its still a good camera ..

Choosing batteries

Your camera requires four AA size batteries.There are several factors that contribute to battery life: NiMH: This is the best solution for enjoyment and cost savings. NiMH batteries typically last longer per charge than the average alkaline batteries. NiMH batteries are rechargeable batteries, so they can be used several times and thereby reduce the expense of continually purchasing new batteries. NiMH batteries are typically sold with a power adapter for charging. The life of these batteries can often be determined by the mAh rating, the higher the mAh rating on the battery, the longer that they will last. NiMH batteries do not have the memory effect associated with NiCd batteries, which means that these batteries can be recharged at any time and at your convenience (you do not have to wait for the batteries to completely drain between charges). Lithium: Energizer has introduced a new series of Lithium batteries that provide optimum performance and long life for disposable AA size batteries. Laboratory studies shows that Lithium batteries last more than three times as long as standard Alkaline batteries. This means many more hours of fun and satisfaction with your digital camera. These lithium batteries are not rechargeable, they are long lasting. Alkaline: Using the LCD display, downloading images, playback, zoom and flash all require some battery power to operate and may decrease the number of shots per set of batteries. Performance may also vary based on the Alkaline batteries selected. To significantly increase battery life, be sure to turn off the LCD when it is not in use. The LCD consumes the most amount of battery power. The benefit of being able to use alkaline batteries is that you can find then almost anywhere if needed. Manganese: If you are using manganese batteries, the typical battery life will be about 2 - 5 shots. Then the camera will indicate that battery power is low and may shut-down. To avoid this experience, use either Alkaline or NiMH batteries. Optimum Solution: Use a set of NiMH batteries for longer use and to reduce the expense of continually buying new batteries. It may also be a good idea to keep a spare set of NiMH batteries for other devices that require AA size batteries on a regular basis. Use AA Alkaline batteries when the NiMH batteries need to be recharged and you want to continue enjoying the use of your camera.
