using 9v battery in Halo B?

Is it possible to use a 9v battery in a Halo B instead of 6 AAbatteries? I've tried it before with cheaper 9v's but it didnt work. Is it because I need 6 AA or were my batteries to weak for it?

If you put in a fresh good quality 9volt, it will work the way it is stock. You'll just get terrible battery life, probably even worse than a Vlocity.

my batteries died in my halo so i threw in a 9v for the rest of the day and it worked fine...so as a temporary replacement they work.....

...my Vlocity surprised me...everyone says they have horrible battery life but i only have to change mine once a month and i play 2 times a week...

a single 9volt can run it, things will just be much slower.

the 9volt mod is a great way to get better preformance while still using lighter easier to find 9volts.
