Battery system explained

CR2 is a compact 3V lithium battery commonly used in laser rangefinders. It is not the same physical size as CR123/CR123A.

No dependable model-specific battery-life figure is listed. Disposable-cell life varies mainly with how often the laser is fired, battery quality, storage and temperature.

How to replace the battery

Turn the rangefinder off before opening the battery compartment.
Remove the old battery and confirm the compartment calls for CR2 3V lithium.
Check the + and − polarity markings before inserting the new battery.
Install the fresh CR2 3V lithium battery in the indicated orientation.
Close the battery cover completely and test the rangefinder with a normal distance reading.
Compatibility warning: CR2 and CR123/CR123A are not interchangeable. Use the CR2 size specified for this model.

Battery life and what affects it

No dependable model-specific battery-life figure is listed. Disposable-cell life depends on battery quality, storage conditions, temperature and how often the laser is activated.

Battery troubleshooting

Tour V6 will not power on

Start with a fresh CR2 3V lithium battery and confirm the polarity shown inside the Tour V6 battery compartment. Because this model uses a replaceable cell, a known-good battery is the quickest way to rule out a power issue.

Fresh CR2 battery but still no power

Confirm the cell is CR2 rather than CR123/CR123A, then inspect the spring/contact surfaces for dirt, corrosion or a battery that is not seated fully under the cap.

Intermittent power after wet weather

The Tour V6 is listed as IPX6. Even so, check the battery compartment and seal for moisture or debris before installing another battery.

Battery drains faster than expected

If the Tour V6 is consuming CR2 3V lithium cells unusually quickly, try a fresh reputable battery and inspect the compartment for moisture, corrosion or a cap that is not closing tightly.

Battery care and storage

If the Tour V6 will sit unused for months, remove the CR2 3V lithium battery and store it separately in a dry place.
Carry one spare CR2 3V lithium battery if you rely on the Tour V6 during a full round or trip; it is quicker than trying to diagnose a dead unit on the course.
The Tour V6 is listed as IPX6, but still keep the battery compartment seal and mating surfaces clean so the cover can close properly.
If power becomes intermittent, test with a fresh known-good battery before assuming the rangefinder itself needs repair.
