⚠️ End Battery Leaks: No Alkaline Batteries in Your Kestrel Meter! ⚠️

🔋 END BATTERY LEAKS!

No Alkaline Batteries! ✔️ Lithium Batteries Only!

If you own a Kestrel 5000 Series Meter or above, this could save your device – and your warranty.

🚫 The Hidden Danger of Alkaline Batteries

Alkaline batteries may be easy to find and cheap to buy, but they come with a hidden and expensive risk: leakage.

As alkaline batteries age – especially when exposed to temperature changes or long periods of inactivity – they are prone to leaking corrosive chemicals. These leaks can destroy the internal components of your Kestrel meter or other sensitive electronics.

Once the damage is done, there’s no turning back – and what’s worse, battery damage is NOT covered under warranty.

 


🔒 Protect Your Investment with Lithium Power

Say No to Alkaline Batteries!

Don't risk any potential irreversible damage to your Kestrel meter's internal components that can lead to malfunction or complete failure. As mentioned earlier, such damage is not covered under the Kestrel warranty, leaving you with costly repairs or replacements.

Want to avoid this completely?
Switch to Lithium batteries – and never look back.

Why Lithium Batteries Are the Superior Choice:

Lithium batteries, offer unparalleled reliability and durability. They are designed to withstand extreme temperatures, have a longer shelf life, and most importantly, do not leak, ensuring your Kestrel 5000 Series meter and above remains safe and operational.

We highly recommend VARTA Professional Lithium and Energizer Ultimate Lithium Batteries (or equivalent non-rechargeable lithium brands) for your Kestrel 5000 Series device and above. Why?

No Leaks
Longer Life
Wider Temperature Range
Reliable, Even in Extreme Conditions

Whether you're using your Kestrel in the heat of the desert or the chill of the mountains, lithium batteries perform better, last longer, and don’t leak.

 


⚠️ Warranty Alert: Don’t Void Your Coverage

Many customers don’t realize that damage from leaking alkaline batteries voids your Kestrel warranty.

Don’t let a $5 battery ruin your investment!

It’s simple:
Use lithium batteries only.
Avoid rechargeables.
Never use alkaline.

 


🧠 A Small Change That Makes a Big Difference

Switching to lithium batteries is an easy, affordable insurance policy against battery-related damage. Whether you’re a pro using your Kestrel for ballistics, weather tracking, fire safety, or aviation, or just want your gear to stay protected – this one small change could make all the difference.

 


🔋 RECOMMENDED BATTERY:

VARTA Professional Lithium (AA) or Energizer Ultimate Lithium (L91 AA) – unmatched for reliability and durability.
