need a new battery for the remote for my gear4 houseparty4, any ideas???????
-
Have you tried Ebay?
-
If you follow the following link to Amazon, they're on sale there, for £0.61: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Maxell-Cr2025-Lithium-Coin-Battery/dp/B000CMA10U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1301688422&sr=8-1

-
does anyone use this with an i phone 4? does it work?
-
We have only used an Ipod nano with it which worked well. Can't help with the i phone 4 question - sorry
-
No - I've got an iPhone 4 and it isn't compatible! Sorry!
-
-
It says that this is battery and mains powered but theres no mention of it being battery powered on any other websites. Is it just mains?
-
Mine is just mains powered. It needs to be as it charges the ipod when its attached and you are using the radio!
-
As far as mine is concerned it is just mains powered. The first models of this had no back-up, so meant if you unplugged the device it would lose it's stored radio stations etc - however the devices being sold now have this problem fixed!
-
just mains
-
-
What models of the ipods does this work with? I have a ipod nano 5th generation.
-
It will work with that!
-
-
Will it work with the 1st generation ipod shuffle?
-
Yes, but I think you'll need to use the AUX feature.
-
-
Does this come with an adaptor for the Ipod Classic ?
-
Yes. It comes with 3 adapters and I have been using it with my Ipod classic. It really is very good value.
-
-
can these speakers be used with an iphone 3GS?
-
Sorry, am not sure. It comes with 3 different docking adapters but I have an Ipod Classic .
-
-
Does the speaker system include the AM radio frequency or is it just FM?
-
It only has a FM tuner. Ignore any claims of an Am frequency.
-
-
Hi
Just wanted to ask does it work with the 1st gen ipod nano?-
hi sorry i don't know we are using it with an ipod touch but you do get adaptors with it,you could try ringing gear 4 customer service.
-
Sorry, but I don't have a 1st gen Ipod Nano so cannot say for sure.
-
I think so - we've got a 2nd generation, and it works fine with that. Even works with the Iphone4 & 4s!
-
-
Does it have a clock and alarm function - we will be using it with a nano, so no I phone apps.
-
Not that I have discovered!
-
No, I'm afraid not. They are just speakers but they are very good and I am really pleased with them.
You can charge your nano when docked.
-
-
Hi does anybody know if this will work with Iphone 3gs thanks
-
I don't have a 3gs but can see no reason why it wouldn't as it is certified for Iphone.
-
Yes it does! Also works with the iPhone 4 too.
-
-
hi is this wall mountable as well Thanks again
-
No, I'm afraid not.
-
-
I am unable to tune the fm radio channels in. I have followed all the instructions to the letter and am just getting a fuzzy interference noise. I have the wire aerial fully extended. Any ideas would be appreciated, the ipod is really great so don't want to return it until I have ruled out the possibility of a fault either human or mechanical.
-
no problem with tuning mine, perhaps its the position you have it in. try moving it to a different room, if no joy then bring it back.
hope this is some help

Hi, i understand this comes with a 3.5mm audio jack, the same size as a headphone jack. Will these speakers work with my galaxy ace smartphone whicg has a 3.5mm input? (where you would put in headphones/earphones). Thanks.
-
There is a 3.5mm aux input socket at the back of the unit under the plastic cover near the mains input. You will need a double 3.5mm jack line to connect your phone to the unit.
