How To: Replace the battery in your Explorer or Voyager system
July 15th, 2008Due to the popularity of our “How to Replace the Battery in Your Liberty or MegaVox Pro” post a few months ago, we felt it was time for the Explorer Pro to have it’s turn in the spotlight. So we grabbed the camera and snapped a couple of pictures to help illustrate the correct procedure on how to replace a dead battery in your Explorer Pro or Voyager systems. For your convenience there are two versions of the procedures – HTML or PDF.

Hello, I am about to replace the batteries in my Liberty and I was just wondering if there is any way to retrofit Lithium Ion batteries in the case? I know they would certainly lighten the load and probably offer better performance. I know it would be expensive, but I’d like to know if it’s possible.
Have you ever thought about using Lithium Ion in production or is it cost prohibitive? I would love to hear what Anchor has to say.
Thanks.
(I’ve been using a Liberty and an Extreme for almost 10 years now.)
Jim,
That is a great question. We have thought about using Lithium Ion batteries in the past, but as you know they come with a very high price tag. A price we feel would not benefit our Anchor Audio users. As far as retrofitting Lithium Ion batteries in a Liberty case, our current battery circuitry was not designed to support Lithium Ion’s so unfortunately that will not work.
Thank you for the comment and for your continued support of Anchor Audio sound systems.
