I'm planning my next trip to Amsterdam. The last time I went I brought my PortaCorda with me. It uses a standard 9-volt battery that I usually replace once a week. It was no problem bring a month's worth of batteries with me.
I'm thinking of getting a Headroom Supreme for my next trip. It uses the much bigger and heavier size D batteries. The Headroom web site is pretty straightforward that the Supreme has a poor (about 20 hour) battery life. This would mean changing batteries every few days. I'd like to travel light and not take up space and weight with a month's worth of D cells. It would be easier to just buy them as needed in Europe.
Are size D batteries readily available in Europe? (A Google search showed that American D batteries are equivalent to British or German R20 batteries).
