Do you still have a PULSE?

Why would someone want to play the "it". You are talking about PULSE, aren't you?

I finally broke down and changed the battery a few weeks ago--and that was only because I figured seven-year-old batteries could do some damage if they leaked. They already looked corroded around the ends.

Despite that, the PULSE never died...I wonder how many more years I could've got out of those batteries (barring leakage)?

But now it blinks as brightly as when I first got it. I wonder if I can get another seven years out of THESE batteries?

As was mine. And what an intro!

And yet, you still went on to listen some more. Amazing. The total mediocrity of the thing didn't discourage you from finding some great music.

How do you change the battery anyway? I've never done it without being tempted to tear the box open.... which I do not want.

What battery does it take?

It was also one of my first intro Floyds as well, after Delicate Sound. I still think its brilliant, not mediocre at all.

Just reach your fingers into the opening at grab the flap that's about 3/4" from the end, and pull it out. Then pull on the metal lip at the bulb end to remove. Takes 2 AA batterys and 1 minute.

Red Bull, do check first to see which version you have. The instructions for the American and European ones are drastically different. Stratman has given you the instructions for the American verison.

As long as it blinks it's all good!

Wow, there is a helluva difference. Changing the batt on the Euro model is akin to brain surgery. And the Euro only uses 1 battery, so it probably craps out quicker.
I also noticed the design on the discs is different from the American version. Thankfully, same great sound!

Marginally off topic, but does anyone know where each disc of PULSE was recorded. On my version it just says "London and Europe". Europe's a pretty big place.
