    SPOILER ALERT:
    Just opening up my LW 400 which I purchased yesterday for $30. Just to let you know that as I was reading through the safety instructions (as you don't!!) it says that, as I mentioned above, the LW 300 uses AAA batteries, while the LW 400 uses AA batteries. However it says, and I quote "you cannot use rechargeable batteries with your product".

    Now I'm not sure why this would be the case, but I think it will be worth a try anyway don't you?

      Interesting as salesman suggested doing so as they had no power adapters.

      We bought a microchip activated pet feeder that said that. It is still going well 18 months later.

      ahh.. must be why my LW300 wasn't working at all on NiMH rechargeables.

      I'm using 6 x AA Eneloops with my LW400. No problems yet, after about 10 labels.

    I also investigated the optional external DC power supply. The OEM one is outrageously priced at about $50 I heard. The DC plug size is a little bit unusual. As far as I can see it is the 4.0×1.7 mm DC plug size. I just ordered some from eBay to test. Hopefully I have some six or 6.5 V DC power supplies hanging around but I can use to power it.

    • SilentDissident on 29/06/2017 - 16:22

      Just checking in, Did you manage to find an appropriate power adapter?

      • GOCAT9 on 30/06/2017 - 10:12

        I bought a plug from eBay but the plug was the wrong size. I'll have to try again I think the centre pain is the next size up from 1.7 mm. I making my own adapter you just have to find any 6 V DC plug pack, cut the plug off if it doesn't fit and solder on one that does. I'm going to have to re-order from eBay so next update will be probably be in 4 to 6 weeks!

        Hope that helps.

    I bought the LW300, didn't seem to work with 6 AAA rechargeable NiMH batteries I got. Alkaline only? or maybe my one's just faulty. anyone used this with rechargeables?

    • newbie12345 on 18/05/2017 - 13:47

      I used the 6 AAA Aldi Super Heavy Duty batteries on LW300 and it worked fine. Not sure how long these cheapie batteries will last though.

    Bought the last LW400 from Coburg yesterday. There were a couple of LW300 units left in Coburg and in Fitzroy.
    The instructions clearly state not to use rechargeables; not sure why, so I'll give them a go latter.

    • bjdchwr on 20/05/2017 - 17:24

      I bought one last LW400 from Preston Store.

      I am using 6 x Amazon Basis (Eneloop Pro re-branded?) and it works fine.

      I've printed more than 20 labels so far and the machine still has 2 bars of battery.

  • Bargin Boy on 18/05/2017 - 21:52

    Plenty of both at Elizabeth SA

    Used eneloops in the LW400 today, did a few labels, no problems.

    • GOCAT9 on 19/05/2017 - 13:24

      I also used NiMH rechargeables in my LW-400 without problems also!
